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.

National Human Trafficking Hotline (NHTH) Performance Indicators

Key Information

Abstract

Section 107of the Trafficking Victims Protection Act (TVPA) of 2000, as codified at 22 U.S.C. § 7105(b)(1)(B)(ii), authorizes the Secretary of Health and Human Services to make a grant for a national communication system—the National Human Trafficking Hotline (NHTH)—to assist victims of severe forms of trafficking in persons in seeking help, receiving referrals, and reporting potential trafficking cases. HHS delegated this authority to the Office on Trafficking in Persons (OTIP). OTIP awards a single, competitively selected grant recipient to maintain and support operation of the NHTH throughout the United States and U.S. territories. The NHTH is a toll-free hotline that operates 24 hours a day, every day of the year. The recipient of the NHTH grant award is expected to: 1. Operate the NHTH’s telephone, text services, chat services, and website via a coordinated national communications system available 24 hours a day; 2. Provide timely information and service referrals to victims of human trafficking; 3. Notify law enforcement and child welfare agencies of potential cases of human trafficking, as required by law and in other situations where appropriate; 4. Establish and maintain a comprehensive online directory of community-based service providers across the United States and U.S. territories. The NHTH grant recipient collects information about signalers (individuals who contact the hotline) and from signalers regarding potential human trafficking situations and potential victims. The NHTH grant recipient summarizes and reports this information to HHS in the aggregate. This is an active, approved collection. The information obtained through this information collection is necessary to support the monitoring of work done through this cooperative agreement, ensure signalers receive information and support needed, provide appropriate technical assistance (TA) to the grant recipient, and to document emerging trafficking schemes. There are no changes proposed to the information collection other than updates to the estimated number of respondents, as shown and described in sections A12 an A15 of the Supporting Statement A.

Post Separation Transition Assistance Program (TAP) Assessment Survey

Key Information

Abstract

The PSTAP Assessment is administered by VA to assess how the TAP training for Transitioning Service members (TSMs) prepares Veterans for civilian life and its effects on long-term Veteran outcomes. This information collection request (ICR) is conducted once per year and is designed as two separate collections which include a Cross-Sectional Survey and a Longitudinal Survey. The survey population for the Cross-Sectional Survey includes all Veterans who meet the criteria at the time of fielding of having separated from the military at six months, one year, and three years prior to the date that surveys. Service members who participated in the Cross-Sectional Survey and voluntarily agreed to participate in the Longitudinal Survey make up the Longitudinal Survey population. VA will use email and mail methods to administer the survey, limiting the burden on respondents. The surveys will be administered to gauge the long-term effectiveness of the Transition Assistance Program (TAP) by: (1) examining the relationship between attendance in TAP courses and the use of VA Benefits; (2) analyzing the effect of participation in TAP courses on the long-term outcomes of Veterans in the broad life domains of employment, education, health and social relationships, financial, social connectivity and overall satisfaction and well-being, and; (3) identifying areas of improvement for TAP and the broader transition process to guide training and/or operational activities aimed at enhancing the quality of service provided to transitioning service members, Veterans, their families and caregivers. Section 4306 requires the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) in consultation with the Secretary of Defense, the Secretary of Labor, and the Administrator of the Small Business Administration to conduct a longitudinal study on changes to Transition Assistance Program (TAP) and provide annual progress reports and a final report. The Section 4306 Study is being added to this current ICR as it closely mirrors the PSTAP Assessment in terms of cohorts and data collected. The overlap in Veterans for the two studies would cause additional burden to thousands of Veterans. Adding the 4306 Study to the current PSTAP Assessment reduces this burden while ensuring both studies collect the data required to meet Congressional and Government requirements.

FERC-505, Small Hydropower Projects and Conduit Facilities including License/Relicense, Exemption, and Qualifying Conduit Facility Determination

Key Information

Abstract

FERC-505 includes applications, notices of intent, and related information collection activities for: • Small hydropower project licenses and relicenses; • Exemptions; and • Determinations of a qualifying conduit hydropower facility. Small hydropower projects are minor water power projects and major water power projects that have an installed capacity of 10 MW or less. They may be licensed under Part I of the Federal Power Act, but some small hydropower projects may be eligible for an exemption. There are two types of FERC hydropower exemptions: (1) exemptions for qualifying conduit hydropower facilities; and (2) exemptions for small projects of 10 MW or less. A qualifying conduit hydropower facility, as defined in section 30 of the FPA, is an existing or proposed hydroelectric facility that utilizes for electric power generation the hydroelectric potential of a conduit, or any tunnel, canal, pipeline, aqueduct, flume, ditch, or similar manmade water conveyance that is not primarily used for the generation of electricity. A Notice of Intent to Construct Qualifying Conduit Hydropower Facilities under 18 CFR 4.401, which is discussed above, is required in order to seek a determination by the Commission that the proposed facility is in accordance with criteria listed at section 30 of the FPA. If the Commission issues such a determination, the facility is not required to be licensed or exempted by the Commission under Part I of the FPA. A 10-MW exemption, as defined in section 405(d) of PURPA, is a project that utilizes for electric generation the water potential of either an existing non-federal dam or a natural water feature (e.g., natural lake, water fall, gradient of a stream, etc.) without the need for a dam or man-made impoundment. The respondents for this information collection include citizens of the United States, corporations organized under the laws of United States or any State thereof, State governments, and municipalities.

Domestic Victims of Human Trafficking (DVHT) Program Data

Key Information

Abstract

The Trafficking Victims Protection Act of 2000 (TVPA), as amended, authorizes the Secretary of Health and Human Services (HHS) to expand benefits and services to victims of severe forms of trafficking in persons in the United States (U.S.), without regard to their immigration status. The TVPA also authorizes HHS to establish and strengthen programs to assist United States citizens and lawful permanent residents who have experienced sex trafficking or severe forms of trafficking in persons (22 U.S.C. § 7105(f)(1)). Acting under a delegation of authority from the Secretary of HHS, the Administration for Children and Families (ACF) awards cooperative agreements to organizations to establish a program to assist U.S. citizens and lawful permanent residents who have experienced human trafficking, the Domestic Victims of Human Trafficking (DVHT) Program. The DVHT Program currently consists of two distinct programs: the Domestic Victims of Human Trafficking Services and Outreach Program (DVHT-SO), and the Demonstration Grants to Strengthen the Response to Victims of Human Trafficking in Native Communities Program (VHT-NC). Through the DVHT Program, grant recipients provide comprehensive case management to domestic survivors of human trafficking in traditional case management and Native community settings. This is an existing collection that is necessary to measure grant project performance, provide technical assistance to grant recipients, assess program outcomes, inform program evaluation, respond to congressional inquiries and mandated reports, and inform policy and program development that is responsive to the needs of victims. Information from this collection also enables OTIP to fulfill a provision in the TVPA of 2000, as amended, that requires the Attorney General to submit annually “a report on Federal agencies that are implementing any provision of this chapter” (22 U.S.C. § 7103(d)) and to prepare a required annual report to Congress on U.S. Government activities to combat trafficking that is prepared by the U.S. Department of Justice. Congress requires HHS and other appropriate Federal agencies to report, at a minimum, information on the number of persons who received benefits or other services under 22 U.S.C. § 7105(b)(f), in connection with programs or activities funded or administered by HHS. Minor, nonsubstantive updates have been made to performance indicators under this collection to simplify response options and to bring the collection into alignment with OTIP’s grant recipient reporting database, the Anti-Trafficking Information Management System (ATIMS). Additionally, certain response options that do not pertain to OTIP's domestic victim service programs were removed. Additionally, based on review of performance data received, specifically the average number of clients served by funded recipients over the last four years, burden estimates for this collection have been reduced. See sections A8 and A15 for additional details about proposed changes.

Disclosure of Returns and Return Information to Designee of Taxpayer

Key Information

Abstract

Under Internal Revenue Section (IRC) 6103(a), returns and return information are confidential unless disclosure is otherwise authorized by the Internal Revenue Code. IRC Section 6103(c), as amended in 1996 by section 1207 of the Taxpayer Bill of Rights II, Public Law 104–168 (110 Stat. 1452), authorizes the IRS to disclose returns and return information to such person or persons as the taxpayer may designate in a request for or consent to disclosure, or to any other person at the taxpayer’s request to the extent necessary to comply with a request for information or assistance made by the taxpayer to such other person. Disclosure is permitted subject to such requirements and conditions as may be prescribed by regulations. Treasury Decision (TD) 9054 contains the final regulations relating to the disclosure of returns and return information to a designee of the taxpayer. The regulations provide guidance to IRS employees responsible for disclosing returns and return information and to taxpayers who wish to designate a person or persons to whom returns and return information may be disclosed. TD 9618 contains final regulations extending the period for submission to the IRS of taxpayer authorizations permitting disclosure of returns and return information to third party designees. Collections of information under Internal Revenue Code section 6103 and this final regulation (26 CFR 301.6103(c)-1), are necessary to make the disclosure requested by a taxpayer. The IRS must collect certain information such as the taxpayer’s name and other identification information, the return or return information to be disclosed, and the identity of the person to whom the return or return information is to be disclosed.

Key Information

Abstract

Treasury and the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) have determined that it is in the best interest of sound tax administration to provide taxpayers with guidance regarding the qualification of LKE Programs under §1031. Accordingly, this revenue procedure provides safe harbors that clarify the application of §1031 and the regulations thereunder to LKE Programs. If a taxpayer meets all of the requirements for these safe harbors, the IRS will not challenge: (a) whether a particular exchange of relinquished property and replacement property qualifies under §1031 of the Internal Revenue Code (IRC) and the regulations thereunder merely because another exchange pursuant to the LKE program fails to so qualify; (b) whether a taxpayer is in actual or constructive receipt of money or other property in the context of an LKE program; or (c) whether an intermediary is a disqualified person in the context of an LKE Program.

Taxation of Gain or Loss from Certain Nonfunctional Currency Transactions (Section 988 Transactions)

Key Information

Abstract

Treasury Decision (TD) 8400 contains previously approved final regulations regarding the taxation of gain or loss from certain foreign currency transactions under Internal Revenue Code (IRC) section 988 and applies to taxpayers engaging in such transactions. Such gains and losses are characterized as ordinary income or loss. However, under IRC section 988(a)(1)(B), taxpayers may elect to characterize exchange gain or loss on certain transactions as capital gain or loss. Treasury Regulations section 1.988-3(b) provides the procedure for making the election. Under IRC section 988(c)(1)(D)(ii), taxpayers may elect to have regulated futures contracts and certain options (which generally are not subject to section 988) treated as section 988 transactions. Treasury Regulations sections 1.988-1(a)(7)(iii) and (iv) provide the procedure for making that election. Under IRC section 988(c)(1)(E)(iii), a qualified fund may elect out of section 988 with respect to certain financial transactions. Treasury Regulations section 1.988-1(a)(8)(iv) provides the procedure for making that election. Under IRC section 988(d), taxpayers may receive special treatment allowing integration with respect to certain borrowings and property if the transactions are properly identified. The identification rules are in Treasury Regulations sections 1.988-5(a)(8), 1.988-5(b)(3), and 1.988-5(c)(2). Treasury Regulations section 1.988-2(a)(2)(v) allows an accrual basis taxpayer to make an election that provides special translation rules regarding the purchase and sale of stock or securities traded on an established securities market. Treasury Regulations section 1.988-2(b)(2)(iii)(B) provides an election allowing the translation of interest income and expense using a spot accrual convention.
