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.

Revision of a currently approved collection
NOAA Geospatial Metadata

Key Information

Abstract

This is a request for revision and extension of an existing information collection. The existing OMB control number is being revised to include additional information collection instruments that collect similar kinds of geospatial metadata as Send2NCEI, but that have different community-based practices or standards that provide for more or less details in the metadata requested. Additionally, the title of this collection of information is being revised from National Centers for Environmental Information (NCEI) Send2NCEI Web Application to NOAA Geospatial Metadata to more accurately reflect the revised collection of information. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) provides several digital forms-based tools enabling data producers to create geospatial metadata conforming to International Standards Organization (ISO) standards. These tools collect very similar information but provide specific assistance for different scientific communities across the diverse spectrum of earth, ocean, atmospheric, and fisheries resources. In 1994, Executive Order 12906 established the National Spatial Data Infrastructure and directed each agency to “document all new geospatial data it collects or produces… using the standard under development by the FGDC...”. In 2010, the FGDC adopted the ISO 19115/19139 suite of standards for use by Federal agencies to document geospatial data. The voluntary information collection using these tools facilitates NOAA and others in Federal, State, or local governments, academic institutions, and others to provide clear descriptive information (metadata) about geospatial data. Metadata requested in the tools identifies the data provider, data collector(s),data collection dates, and other information that make the described data useful to other researchers and future users of the described data. Each tool reorganizes descriptive information into an XML file that conforms to the ISO19115-2 Geospatial Metadata standard and the ISO19139 Geographic information Metadata XML schema implementation. A significant advantage for a data provider using one of these tools is that the information is collected through a series of short form-based pages that provide suggestions for entries from established keyword lists and other standard responses. Data providers may opt to use suggested entries or to enter free text into the forms.

You Can Make Your Payment by Credit Card

Key Information

Abstract

SSA uses the information we collect on Form SSA-4588, and its electronic application, SSA-4589, to update individuals’ Social Security records to reflect payments made on their overpayments. In addition, SSA uses this information to process payments through the appropriate credit card company. SSA provides a copy of the SSA-4588 when we inform an individual that we detected an overpayment. Individuals may choose to make a one-time payment, or recurring monthly payments, when they complete and submit the SSA-4588. When individuals choose to telephone the Program Service Centers (PSC) to make a one-time payment in lieu of completing Form SSA-4588, an SSA debtor contact representative completes the SSA-4589 electronic Intranet application. SSA employees, who take the telephone calls from individuals making a one-time credit card payment, enter credit card information directly into an electronic intranet application. Individuals wishing to establish recurring monthly payments must still complete the SSA-4588 paper form due to the original signature requirement. Respondents are Old Age Survivors and Disability Insurance (OASDI) beneficiaries and Supplemental Security Income (SSI) recipients who have outstanding overpayments.

Supplement To Claim of Person Outside the United States

Key Information

Abstract

Claimants or beneficiaries, both United States (U.S.) citizens and aliens entitled to benefits, living outside the U.S. complete Form SSA-21 as a supplement to an application for benefits. SSA collects the information to determine eligibility for U.S. Social Security benefits for those months an alien beneficiary or claimant is outside the U.S., and to determine if tax withholding applies. In addition, SSA uses the information to: (1) allow beneficiaries or claimants to request a special payment exception in an SSA Restricted country; (2) terminate Supplemental Medical Insurance coverage for recipients who request it, because they are, or will be, out of the U.S.; and (3) allow claimants to collect a lump sum death benefit if the number holder died outside the U.S. and we do not have information to determine the whether the lump sum death is payable under the Social Security Act. The respondents are Social Security claimants, or individuals entitled to Social Security benefits, who are, will be, or have been residing outside the U.S. for three months or longer.
