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.

Veterans Upward Bound (VUB) Program Annual Performance Report

Key Information

Abstract

All Veterans Upward Bound projects must provide instruction in mathematics through pre-calculus, laboratory science, foreign language, composition, and literature. Projects may also provide short-term remedial or refresher courses for veterans who are high school graduates but have delayed pursuing postsecondary education. Projects are also expected to assist veterans in securing support services from other locally available resources such as the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs, veterans- associations, and other state and local agencies that serve veterans. The Department-s annual performance report (APR) for VUB collects each current grantee-s data at the participant level on services and performance over the course of a year. The Department uses the information conveyed in the performance report to assess a grantee-s progress in meeting its approved goals and objectives and to evaluate a grantee-s prior experience in accordance with the program regulations in 34 CFR 645.32. Grantees- annual performance reports also provide information on the outcomes of projects- work and of the VUB program as a whole. In addition, APR data allows the Department to respond to the reporting requirements of the Government Performance and Results Act. The APR has been updated to include questions related to the Competitive Preference Priorities used in the most recent competition. These questions are not expected to affect the total burden hours per response.

Educational Opportunity Centers Program (EOC) Annual Performance Report

Key Information

Abstract

The Department of Education (ED) collects Annual Performance Reports (APRs) from Educational Opportunity Centers (EOC) grantees under the authority of Title IV, Part A, Subpart 2, Division 1, Sections 402A and 402B of the Higher Education Act of 1965, as amended, the program regulations in 34 CFR 644, and the Education Department General Administrative Regulations (EDGAR), in 34 CFR 74.51, 75.720, and 75.732. The information that grantees submit in their APRs allows ED to annually assess each grantee's progress in meeting their project's approved goals and objectives. The APR data that grantees submit are compared with the projects' approved objectives to determine the projects' accomplishments, to make decisions regarding whether funding should be continued, and to award "prior experience" points. The regulations for this program provide for awarding up to 15 points for prior experience (34 CR 644.22). During a competition for new grant awards, the prior experience points are added to the average of the peer reviewers' scores to arrive at a total score for each application. Funding recommendations and decisions are primarily based on the rank order of applications on the slate; therefore, assessment of prior experience points, based on data in the annual performance report, is a crucial part of the overall application process. Further, this performance report form is the main source of data for the Department's response to the requirements of the Government Performance and Results Act (GPRA) for this program. In addition, the Department uses the annual performance reports to produce program level data for annual reporting, budget submissions to OMB, Congressional hearings and inquiries, and responding to inquiries from higher education interest groups and the general public. EOC APRs are prepared and submitted by EOC grant projects. For each EOC grant project, the grant project director of record completes, or supervises the completion of the data submission process. The grant project director supervises the administration of an EOC grant. An EOC grant provides counseling and information on college admissions to qualified adults who want to enter or continue a program of postsecondary education. The program also provides services to improve the financial and economic literacy of participants. An important objective of the program is to counsel participants on financial aid options, including basic financial planning skills, and to assist in the application process. The goal of the EOC program is to increase the number of adult participants who enroll in postsecondary education institutions. The proposed revision to the APR entails replacement of Competitive Preference Priority (CPP) questions with new CPP questions of equal response time. In addition, the annual number of responses and total annual burden hours have been adjusted to reflect an increase in the size of the reporting universe.

[NIOSH] Reducing Fatigue Among Taxi/Rideshare Drivers

Key Information

Abstract

The goal of this study is to evaluate an online, interactive training on fatigue management tailored to taxi drivers and other for-hire rideshare drivers. The proposed study is a longitudinal, randomized design comparing two interventions and a control over 5 study periods. One group of 60 drivers will receive both interventions: fatigue training and daily feedback on estimated fatigue score. A second group of 60 drivers will receive only the fatigue training. A third group of 60 drivers will receive neither intervention. All participating drivers will take a self-administered questionnaire, wear a wrist actigraph to measure sleep quality, complete a sleep and activities diary, and take a sleep health and driving knowledge assessment. Drivers taking the training will be asked to complete an evaluation. Findings will be used to improve the training program for potential future dissemination. This change request updates documents to follow executive orders.

National Healthy Start Evaluation and Quality Assurance

Key Information

Abstract

The goal of this ongoing monitoring and evaluation is to assess Healthy Start (HS) progress towards meeting its performance goals. Results from monitoring and evaluation efforts will provide actionable evidence to support the improvement, sustainability, replication, and dissemination of the program. The information collected will be used to obtain consistent information across all 100 grantees about HS, its participants, and its outcomes. Respondents include pregnant women and women of reproductive age that were served by HS and HS staff. This revision seeks to reduce the burden of data collection on grantees and program participants, as well as to focus the evaluation more clearly on progress towards meeting performance goals regarding program impact. In the process, this will ensure that collected data is meaningful for monitoring and evaluation, and that previously separate data systems can be streamlined, thus improving efficiency.

Generic for ACF Program Monitoring Activities

Key Information

Abstract

This information collection request (ICR) is for a revision to the umbrella Generic for ACF Program Monitoring Activities. The current expiration date is November 30, 2023. The overall proposed purposes, uses, and scope of the umbrella remain unchanged. The only changes are to the burden estimates, as described in sections A12 and A15. The Generic for ACF Program Monitoring Activities allows Administration for Children and Families (ACF) program offices to collect standardized information from recipients that receive Federal funds to ensure oversight, evaluation, support purposes, and stewardship of Federal funds. The information is necessary to ensure compliance with Federal and programmatic requirements, monitor progress on recipient activities, and determine and respond to recipient needs such as Training and Technical Assistance (T/TA). ACF is primarily a grant-making agency that promotes the economic and social well-being of families, children, individuals and communities with partnerships, funding, guidance, T/TA. ACF program offices have evolving monitoring needs, dependent on both internal and external factors, such as but not limited to: current grantee activities, needs; uses of federal funds; changes to aspects of programs based on statutory authority, federal regulations or policy, and/or Congressional appropriations; availability of program office funds for site visits (v. desk monitoring); matters of importance related to national health and safety needs of the public, or other events that lead to program changes. There are times when standardized collections of information would be helpful for program offices as they monitor recipient activities and needs. This generic clearance allows program offices the flexibility to create tailored information collections based on current circumstances and to receive approval for these in a timely manner. This is important to allow for ACF’s: • monitoring of compliance with federal practice, guidelines and requirements, • quick understanding of and remediation to national, regional, and/or site-specific issues, • provision of support as needed, • accurate assessment of the efficiency and efficacy of recipient activities • documentation of promising practice, innovative services, and program strengths • flexible and responsive oversight of federal funds

ACF’s Generic Clearance for Reviewer Recruitment Forms

Key Information

Abstract

This request by the Administration for Children and Families (ACF) is to extend approval of the generic clearance for Reviewer Recruitment Forms with no changes (note that burden estimates have been updated to reflect ongoing collections and estimated future burden, but the purpose and use of this generic have not changed). ACF may recruit reviewers for a variety of different activities and each program office within ACF has a slightly different needs for information about reviewer applicants for different activities. This overarching generic clearance allows ACF to request slightly different information from potential reviewers, yet the individual forms serve the same general function. The abbreviated clearance process of the generic clearance allows program offices to gather a suitable pool of candidates within the varied time periods available for reviewer recruitment. The forms submitted under this umbrella generic are and will be voluntary, low-burden and uncontroversial. Information will be collected electronically unless specified otherwise in an individual generic information collection (GenIC) request.

Abstract

NIOSH is requesting a non-substantive change request for 0920-1441 by using the “Request for genIC Approval” Form when requesting to debit hours from the umbrella genIC package to reduce redundancy and unnecessary complexity that an additional Supporting Statement A would have on individual packages submitted. The Request for genIC Approval Form for 0920-1441 was initially submitted with the package as a form of Supporting Statement A but later removed to reduce extra work and redundancy. This change request includes very minor edits.

Assessing the Use of Informal Contacts to Promote Caregivers’ Engagement and Satisfaction with Early Childhood Home Visiting Through Rapid Cycle Learning

Key Information

Abstract

This information collection is part of the Assessing and Describing Practice Transitions Among Evidence-Based Home Visiting Programs in Response to the COVID-19 Public Health Emergency Study, which aims to identify and study practices implemented in response to the COVID-19 public health emergency that support evidence-based practice and have the potential to enhance home visiting programming. One of the practices the study identified is the use of informal contacts. Informal contacts are any contacts between a home visitor and family that occur between formal home visits (e.g., text messages, emails). The purpose of this information collection is to better understand, through rapid cycle learning, how MIECHV-funded home visiting programs can use informal contacts to improve service delivery and promote caregiver’s engagement and satisfaction.

Assessing Strategies To Promote Children’s Engagement and Active Participation in Virtual Visits

Key Information

Abstract

This information collection is part of the Assessing and Describing Practice Transitions Among Evidence-Based Home Visiting Programs in Response to the COVID-19 Public Health Emergency Study, which aims to identify and study practices implemented in response to the COVID-19 public health emergency that support evidence-based practice and have the potential to enhance home visiting programming. One of the practices the study identified is strategies home visitors use to engage children and promote their active engagement during virtual visits. The purpose of this information collection is to better understand, through rapid cycle learning, how MIECHV-funded home visiting programs can implement virtual strategies improve child engagement and how home visitors can apply these strategies during in-person service delivery. Information will be collected in four phases designed to (1) identify virtual child engagement strategies (co-definition phase); (2) pilot test and identify refinements to improve the implementation of strategies (installation phase); (3) iteratively test the strategies with refinements to their implementation (refinement phase); and (4) assess the potential of these child engagement strategies to improve service delivery and promote family engagement and family satisfaction with home visiting programs in both virtual and in-person settings (summary phase). Data collection activities include focus groups, online questionnaires, and review of documents and administrative data.
