Change Requests

What is an ICR?

An Information Collection Request (ICR) is a federal agency's request for approval from the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) to collect information from the public. Under the Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA), agencies must justify why the information is needed and how it will be used.

When are they submitted?

Federal agencies are required to submit an ICR whenever they create, renew, modify an information collection. Each ICR includes a description of the collection, supporting materials and documentation (such as forms, surveys, or scripts), and proof that the agency has met the requirements of the PRA.

The ICR is submitted to the The Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs (OIRA) within OMB for review and approval. OIRA grants approval for a maximum of three years, after which the collection must be renewed through a new ICR submission.

Where to find an ICR?

ICRs are publicly available on RegInfo.gov, and additional guidance can be found in the FAQs.

Note: Presidential Action influences are notated for ICRs received between January 20, 2025 and July 19, 2025.

Designation of Financial Market Utilities

Key Information

Abstract

Section 804 of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (the DFA) (Pub. L. 111-203, 124 Stat. 1376) provides the Financial Stability Oversight Council (Council) the authority to designate a financial market utility (FMU) as systemically important if the Council determines that the failure of or a disruption to the functioning of the FMU could create, or increase, the risk of significant liquidity or credit problems spreading among financial institutions or markets and thereby threaten the stability of the U.S. financial system. A designated FMU is subject to risk management standards prescribed by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, the Commodity Futures Trading Commission, or the Securities and Exchange Commission under section 805 of the DFA. The rules adopted by the Council in July 2011 (codified at 12 CFR part 1320) describe the criteria that will inform, and the processes and procedures established under the DFA for, the Council’s designation of FMUs under the DFA.

Generic Clearance for Improving Customer Experience: OMB Circular A–11, Section 280 Implementation) (CMS-10710)

Key Information

Abstract

In March 2018, the Administration of President Trump launched the President’s Management Agenda (PMA) and established new Cross-Agency Priority (CAP) Goals. Excellent service was established as a core component of the mission, service, stewardship model that frames the entire PMA, embedding a customer-focused approach in all of the PMA’s initiatives. This model was also included in the 2018 update of the Federal Performance Framework in Circular A-11, ensuring ‘excellent service’ as a focus in future agency strategic planning efforts. The PMA included a CAP Goal on Improving Customer Experience with Federal Services, with a primary strategy to drive improvements within 25 of the nation’s highest impact programs. This effort is supported by an interagency team and guidance in Circular A-11 requiring the collection of customer feedback data and increasing the use of industry best practices to conduct customer research. These Presidential actions and requirements establish an ongoing process of collecting customer insights and using them to improve services. This new request will enable the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (hereafter the Agency) to act in accordance with OMB Circular A-11 Section 280 to ultimately transform the experience of its customers to improve both efficiency and mission delivery, and increase accountability by communicating about these efforts with the public.

This system is the primary tool used by both recruiters in the field and higher-level management to collect, process, manage and analyze all potential enlisted and officer applicants. Most of the information put into the system is pulled from the SF-86 (OMB Control No. 3206-0005) that all USAF applicants fill out. The system automatically completes the AF forms associated with this system. The collection instrument provided in the IC section is the information the applicant must provide that cannot be taken from the SF-86, and is the sole point of collection.

Installation Management Command Survivor Outreach Service System (SOS IMCOM)

Key Information

Abstract

Survivor Outreach Services is an Army-wide program that provides dedicated and comprehensive support services to all Family members of Soldiers who die while on Active Duty, including Regular Army, United States Army National Guard (ARNG) and Reserves patrons. Survivor Outreach Services Support Coordinators serve as the main Survivor advocate. They facilitate support groups, provide life skills education, assist Survivors in managing applicable life-long benefit transition milestones, connect Survivors with counseling resources, and represent the command in contacts with community organizations. Survivor Outreach Services Financial Counselors help Survivors by assisting with budget counseling, debt management, education, and higher education needs. SOS staff members are required to make periodic communication with Survivors—at a minimum of one contact annually—to conduct well-being checks and milestone management reviews or determine the level of support Survivors desire. Information gathered in these meetings is input into the SOS application collection instrument by SOS staff members. No customers have access to the collection instrument. SOS staff members collect the information from the Survivors and document the information as a direct contact within the SOS application case notes. The successful end result of the information collection as a whole is an organized and up-to-date database of essential information on Survivors that allows SOS to better provide the support they deserve.

Annual Tank Car Facility Survey

Key Information

Abstract

Section 7308(c) of the Fixing America’s Surface Transportation Act of 2015 (FAST Act) directs the Secretary of Transportation to conduct a survey of tank car facilities, commonly referred to as tank car shops, to obtain an estimate of tank cars projected to be modified or built to the new safer Department of Transportation (DOT) specification 117 or 117R. To satisfy the FAST Act requirements, the Bureau of Transportation Statistics (BTS) has implemented a data collection from facilities that are certified to build and retrofit tank cars. Specifically, BTS collects data from tank car retrofitting and manufacturing facilities on their planned and projected number of tank cars to be retrofitted or manufactured for the calendar year and continuing an annual basis through 2029, per the legislation. Any facility identified with the capacity to build or modify new tank cars to the 117 or 117R specification, as described in Section 7308(c) of the FAST Act, will be included in the survey. This is estimated to be a relatively small universe of no more than 140 facilities. The data collection is comprised of only questions that can gather this information from tank car shops and is expected to have minimal burden. In accordance with Confidential Information Protection and Statistical Efficiency Act, BTS will ensure that all responses to this census are kept confidential to the extent allowable by law. Only summary information in the form of aggregated estimates will be made public so as not to identify, directly or indirectly, individual respondents or responses.

Prohibited Species Donation Program

Key Information

Abstract

The National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS), Alaska Regional Office, requests extension of this currently approved information collection for the Alaska PSD Program. The PSD Program was initiated in 1994 to reduce the amount of edible protein discarded under prohibited species catch regulatory requirements (50 CFR 679.21). Unless you are a PSD permit holder, all prohibited species catch must be avoided by vessels. Salmon and Pacific halibut are considered prohibited species for vessels fishing in the Bering Sea/Aleutian Islands and Gulf of Alaska groundfish fisheries. If a person is a participant in the PSD Program under 50 CFR 679.26, the incidentally caught salmon and Pacific halibut may be donated to the PSD Program. This Program allows permitted seafood processors to retain salmon and halibut bycatch for distribution to economically disadvantaged individuals through tax exempt hunger relief organizations. One participant, SeaShare, located at Bainbridge Island, Washington, (https://www.seashare.org/) has applied for and retained a PSD permit since the Program’s inception. SeaShare is a non-profit organization and to date has been the only company licensed to participate in the PSD Program. Current participants in the PSD Program administered by SeaShare include 12 shoreside processors and 136 catcher vessels delivering to these shoreside processors, 34 catcher/processors, and 3 motherships. One change was made to this collection. In response to comment received, the respondent’s hourly wage rate was increased.

The EPA is required under section 183(e) of the Clean Air Act (CAA) to regulate volatile organic compound emissions from the use of consumer and commercial products. Pursuant to CAA section 183(e)(3), the EPA published a list of consumer and commercial products and a schedule for their regulation (60 FR 15264). Automobile refinish coatings were included on the list, and the standards for such coatings are codified at 40 CFR part 59, subpart B. The reports required under the standards enable the EPA to identify all coating and coating component manufacturers and importers in the United States and to determine which coatings and coating components are subject to the standards, based on dates of manufacture.

Credit for Small Employer Pension Plan Startup Costs, Auto-Enrollment, and Military Spouse Participation

Key Information

Abstract

Qualified small employers use Form 8881 to request a credit for start up costs related to eligible retirement plans. Form 8881 implements section 45E, which provides a credit based on costs incurred by an employer in establishing or administering an eligible employer plan or for the retirement related education of employees with respect to the plan. The credit is 50% of the qualified costs for the tax year, up to a maximum credit of $500 for the first tax year and each of the two subsequent tax years. The Secure 2.0 Act of 2022 added new IRC section 45AA, Military Spouse Retirement Plan Eligibility Credit for Small Employers. Section 45AA provides a general business tax credit to eligible small employers who offer defined contribution plans with specific features that benefit military spouses. The section 45AA credit is, for a tax year during which a military spouse participates in the plan, up to 3 tax years beginning with the tax year during which the military spouse began participating in the plan, $200, plus the amount of employer contributions (other than elective deferrals) made on behalf of the military spouse for any of the 3 tax years, up to $300 for a tax year. The Form 8881 is being revised to add the Section 45AA credit. Additionally, the Secure 2.0 Act amended section 45E to permit eligible employers, with 1–50 employees, an increased start-up costs credit of 100% of the qualified start-up costs for a tax year, up to $500 for the tax year in which the plan is established or becomes effective and each of the two subsequent tax years. The Secure 2.0 Act also amended section 45E to permit an additional credit for employer contributions by certain eligible employers, in an amount equal to an applicable percentage of eligible employer contributions to a defined contribution plan, for up to 5 tax years beginning with the tax year in which the plan is established. The Form 8881 is being revised to include these additions under section 45E.

Abstract

Section 109(a) of the Tax Relief and Health Care Act of 2006 (TRHCA) (Pub. L. 109-432) amended section 1833(t) of the Social Security Act by adding a new subsection (17) that affects the payment rate update applicable to Outpatient Prospective Payment System (OPPS) payments for services furnished by hospitals in outpatient settings on or after January 1, 2009. Section 1833(t)(17)(A) of the Social Security Act, which applies to hospitals as defined under section 1886(d)(1)(B) of the Social Security Act, requires that hospitals that fail to report data required for quality measures selected by the Secretary in the form and manner required by the Secretary under section 1833(t)(17)(B) of the Social Security Act will incur a reduction in their annual payment update (APU) factor to the hospital outpatient department fee schedule by 2.0 percentage points. Hospital OQR Program payment determinations are made based on Hospital OQR Program quality measure data reported and supporting forms submitted by hospitals as specified through rulemaking. To reduce burden, a variety of different data collection mechanisms are employed, with every consideration taken to employ existing data and data collection systems.

Minimum Data Set 3.0 Nursing Home and Swing Bed Prospective Payment System (PPS) for the Collection of Data Related to the Patient Driven Payment Model and the Skilled Nursing Facility QRP (CMS-10387)

Key Information

Abstract

The Minimum Data Set (MDS) is a uniform instrument used in every Medicare/Medicaid certified nursing home in the United States to assess resident condition. It was developed in response to the Landmark Institute of Medicine (IOM) Report on Nursing Home Quality in 1987 where the MDS was seen as a critical component in efforts to improve the quality of care in nursing homes. The Omnibus Reconciliation Act of 1987 (OBRA 1987) also set forth new provisions for Medicare and Medicaid related to new standards for care in the nursing home setting. From its inception, the MDS was intended to serve several purposes: (1) Collect data to inform care plans (2) To generate quality indicators to evaluate nursing homes and guide improvement interventions (3) To serve as a data source for nursing home payment systems. Pursuant to sections 4204(b) and 4214(d) of OBRA 1987, the current requirements related to the submission and retention of resident assessment data are not subject to the Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA), but it has been determined that requirements for SNF staff performing, encoding and patient assessment data necessary administer the payment rate methodology described in 413.337, are subject to the PRA. The SNF QRP was established in CMS-1622-F (August 4, 2015; 80 FR 46390) and began collecting data from SNFs in fiscal year (FY) 2016 using the MDS. As described in section 1899B (b)(1)(B) of the Social Security Act (the Act), SNFs are required to submit standardized patient assessment data with respect to the following categories: • Functional Status • Cognitive Function • Special Services, Treatments, and Interventions • Medical Conditions and Comorbidities • Impairments • Other categories deemed necessary and appropriate by the Secretary Both the Patient Driven Payment Model (PDPM) in the SNF PPS and the SNF QRP collect data through the MDS 3.0. The PDPM was described and adopted for SNFs and Swing Beds in CMS-1696-F (August 8, 2018; 83 FR 39162). This package is a request for a revision to the current Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessment instrument for the Skilled Nursing Facility (SNF). This package represents a request from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) to implement the MDS 3.0 v1.18.11 beginning October 1, 2023 to October 1, 2026 in order to meet the requirements of policies finalized in the Federal Fiscal Year (FY) 2020 Skilled Nursing Facility (SNF) Prospective Payment System (PPS) final rule (CMS-1718-F, RIN 0938-AT75). A PRA package was submitted at the time of the finalized policies and approved on 11/22/2019, but the compliance date for the finalized policies (10/01/2020) was delayed due to the COVID-19 public health emergency (PHE). Please note, however, the burden was never retracted, and the implementation of the instrument was simply delayed. While there has been no change in assessment-level burden since the approval of the MDS 3.0 v1.17.2, there has been a change in total burden since 2019 when the package was originally approved due to a decrease in the number of MDS assessments completed and a change in the hourly rate for clinicians completing the assessment.

Annual Performance Report for the State Grant for Assistive Technology Program

Key Information

Abstract

Information collected through this data collection instrument is necessary for ACL and states to comply with Sections 4 and 8 of the 21st Century Assistive Technology Act (AT Act). Section 4 of the AT Act authorizes grants to public agencies in the 50 states and the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, the Virgin Islands, Guam, American Samoa, and the Commonwealth of the Northern Marianas (states and territories). With these funds, the 56 states and territories operate “Statewide AT Programs” that conduct activities to increase access to and acquisition of assistive technology (AT) for individuals with disabilities and older Americans. These comprehensive activities are divided into two categories: “State-level Activities” and “State Leadership Activities.” According to Section 4 of the AT Act, as a condition of receiving a grant to support their Statewide AT Programs, the 56 states and territories must provide to ACL: (1) applications and (2) annual progress reports on their activities. Section 8(d) of the AT Act requires that ACL submit to Congress an annual report on the activities conducted under the Act and an analysis of the progress of the states and territories in meeting their measurable goals. This report must include a compilation and summary of the data collected under Section 4(f). In order to make this possible, states and territories must provide their data uniformly. This data collection instrument was developed to ensure that all 56 states and outlying areas report data in a consistent manner in alignment with the requirements of Section 4(f). This data collection provides a way for all 56 grantees—50 U.S. states, D.C., Puerto Rico, the U.S. Virgin Islands, Guam, American Samoa, and the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands to collect and report data on their performance in a consistent manner.
