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.

Ombudsman Inquiry/Request Instrument

Key Information

Abstract

The Office of the Procurement Ombudsman (OPO) is currently tracking and processing vendor inquiries and complaints using a composite of methods including email, Google Sheets, and MS Word Docs which makes it difficult to share, collaborate, centrally store data, effectively track information, as well as producing the necessary analytics (i.e. trend analysis) required for reporting to GSA senior leadership. As a result, the OPO finds it more difficult to help deconflict issues between GSA vendors and the acquisition workforce, as well as producing the necessary analytics required to improve acquisition processes. The Inquiry/Request web site will standardize and automate the collection of the data thereby reducing issues associated with manual receipt and processing of email and telephone calls.

Antibiotic resistance has the potential to impact all Americans at every stage of life and CDC is working to drive aggressive action and empower the nation to comprehensively respond to these threats. The goal of this study is to establish a network of public health laboratories to improve detection and characterization of urgent antibiotic resistant threats in healthcare-associated infections, carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE), carbapenem-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa (CRPA), carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii (CRAB), and Candida species, including C. auris. The proposed changes are for: 1) wording changes to enhance clarity of two existing data collection forms related to antimicrobial testing, including a monthly report form and a form used to signal alerts; and 2) removal of questions that are no longer relevant. This Change Request results in a net decrease of the overall burden.

Key Information

Abstract

In March 2019, Acting Secretary of Defense Patrick Shanahan requested the Department of Defense (DoD) to form a team of experts to “take a fresh look” at issues involving the sexual assault investigative and accountability process. The DoD established the Sexual Assault Accountability and Investigation Task Force (SAAITF) to identify, evaluate, and make recommendations to improve the investigation and accountability process. As part of this effort, the 2019 SAAITF report called for a “standardized survey of victim experiences, attitudes, and satisfaction.” The Sexual Violence Support and Experiences Study (SVSES) meets this requirement and will allow the DoD Sexual Assault Prevention and Response Office (SAPRO), other DoD policy offices, and the military Services to use the input of military members to inform improvements to the response system and to address challenges military members face during the military investigation and accountability process.

Appraisals for Higher-Priced Mortgage Loans

Key Information

Abstract

Section 1471 of the Dodd-Frank Act established a new Truth in Lending (TILA) section 129H, which contains appraisal requirements applicable to higher-risk mortgages and prohibits a creditor from extending credit in the form of a higher-risk mortgage loan to any consumer without meeting those requirements. A Higher-risk mortgage is defined as a residential mortgage loan secured by a principal dwelling with an annual percentage rate (APR) that exceeds the average prime offer rate (APOR) for a comparable transaction as of the date the interest rate is set by certain enumerated percentage point spreads. The rule requires that, within three days of application, a creditor provide a disclosure that informs consumers regarding the purpose of the appraisal, that the creditor will provide the consumer a copy of any appraisal, and that the consumer may choose to have a separate appraisal conducted at the expense of the consumer. If a loan meets the definition of a higher-risk mortgage loan, then the creditor would be required to obtain a written appraisal prepared by a certified or licensed appraiser who conducts a physical visit of the interior of the property that will secure the transaction, and send a copy of the written appraisal to the consumer. To qualify for the safe harbor provided under the rule, a creditor is required to review the written appraisal as specified in the text of the rule and appendix A. If a loan is classified as a higher-risk mortgage loan that will finance the acquisition of the property to be mortgaged, and the property was acquired within the previous 180 days by the seller at a price that was lower than the current sale price, then the creditor is required to obtain an additional appraisal.

Key Information

Abstract

This information collection (IC) request seeks a three-year extension without change for the currently approved collection under OMB Control Number 2132‑0550, “Bus Testing Program.” There have been no changes to the respondent universe, burden hours, or program requirements since OMB last approved this collection in 2023. The response to this collection remains required to obtain or retain a benefit, as federal funds may not be obligated or expended for the acquisition of a new transit bus unless the vehicle satisfies all requirements of FTA’s Bus Testing Program. Respondents to this collection are transit bus manufacturers who submit testing requests to FTA when introducing a new bus model or when major modifications are made to a model previously tested. All information is submitted through FTA’s online bus testing portal. Required information includes bus model and manufacturer details, vehicle specifications, documentation demonstrating compliance with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards, and descriptions of major design changes, if applicable. While the program itself has not changed, this updated IC reflects increased cost estimates for both respondents and the federal government due solely to updated labor rates.

NESHAP for Hazardous Waste Combustors (40 CFR Part 63, Subpart EEE) (Proposed Rule)

Key Information

Abstract

This proposal presents the results of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agencys (EPA) residual risk and technology review for the National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) from Hazardous Waste Combustors (HWC) as required under the Clean Air Act (CAA). In this action, the EPA is proposing to establish emission limits and work practice standards for hydrogen fluoride and hydrogen cyanide emissions from HWC incinerators, cement kilns, solid fuel boilers, and liquid fuel boilers; eliminate the startup, shutdown, and malfunction (SSM) exemption; add a work practice standard for periods of SSM; add electronic reporting procedures and requirements; allow states to choose to exempt area sources from certain permitting requirements; and other clarifications and corrections. In response to comments received on certain aspects of the July 24, 2024, proposed revisions for periods of malfunction, the EPA is withdrawing that proposed rule and instead proposing different provisions to address periods of SSM.

Abstract

The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, Public Law 111-148, enacted on March 23, 2010, and the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act, Public Law 111-152, enacted on March 30, 2010 (collectively, “Affordable Care Act”), expanded access to health insurance for individuals and employees of small businesses through the establishment of new Affordable Insurance Exchanges (Exchanges), also called Marketplaces. The Exchanges, which became operational on January 1, 2014, enhance competition in the health insurance market, expand access to affordable health insurance for millions of Americans, and provide consumers with a place to easily compare and shop for health insurance coverage. Section 1312(e) of the Affordable Care Act directs the Secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) to establish procedures under which a state may permit agents and brokers to enroll qualified individuals and employers into qualified health plans (QHPs) offered through an Exchange and to enable these agents and brokers to assist individuals in applying for advance payments of the premium tax credit and cost-sharing reductions. Authority for collection of this information comes from 45 C.F.R. §155.220(c)(5), which states that “HHS or its designee may periodically monitor and audit an agent, broker, or web-broker under this subpart to assess its compliance with the applicable requirements of this section.” This information collection specifically details what information will be required to be collected and maintained by agents, brokers, and web-brokers were they to receive a request from HHS for consent records. Currently, HHS only plans to collect information from a small percentage of agents, brokers, or web-brokers in conjunction with active investigations of potential fraud. Utilizing §155.220(c)(5) and the information to be collected under newly proposed §§ 155.220(j)(2)(ii)(A)(1-2) and 155.220(j)(2)(iii)(A-C), HHS will be able to verify whether or not an agent, broker, or web-broker has obtained consent from a consumer they are assisting in enrolling in coverage in the individual market, and whether the consumer has reviewed their eligibility information and confirmed its accuracy.

Collection of Diagnostic Data in the Abbreviated RAPS Format from Medicare Advantage Organizations for Risk Adjusted Payments (CMS-10062)

Key Information

Abstract

Section 1853 of the Social Security Act, hereafter referred to as “the Act,” requires CMS to make advance monthly payments to a Medicare Advantage (MA) organization for each beneficiary enrolled in an MA plan offered by the organization for coverage of Medicare Part A and Part B benefits. Section 1853(a)(1)(C) of the Act requires CMS to adjust the monthly payment amount for each enrollee to take into account the health status of MA plan enrollees. CMS used RAPS data, in combination with encounter data and Fee-For-Service (FFS) data, to develop the diagnosis-based portion of the risk scores for risk adjusted payment to MA organizations, PACE organizations, and MMPs. Risk adjustment allows CMS to pay plans for the health risk of the beneficiaries they enroll, instead of paying an identical average amount for each enrollee. By risk adjusting plan payments, CMS is able to make appropriate and accurate payments for enrollees with differences in expected costs. Risk adjustment is used to adjust bidding and payment based on the health status and demographic characteristics of an enrollee. Risk scores measure individual beneficiaries’ relative risk and the risk scores are used to adjust payments for each beneficiary’s expected expenditures. By risk adjusting plan bids, CMS is able to also use standardized bids as base payments to plans.
