Regulation 14A (Commission Rules 14a-1 through 14a-21 and Schedule 14A)

Key Information

Abstract

Section 14(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“Exchange Act”) gives the Securities and Exchange Commission (“Commission”) authority to prescribe rules and regulations, as necessary or appropriate in the public interest or for the protection of investors, with respect to the solicitation of proxies. Section 14(a) is intended to help ensure that shareholders have sufficient information upon which to make their voting decisions or decisions to authorize a proxy. The Commission promulgated Regulation 14A (17 CFR 240.14a-1 through 14a-21) and Schedule 14A (17 CFR 240.14a-101) to regulate the solicitation of proxies or consents. Those rules and schedule set forth the requirements for the dissemination, content, and filing of proxy or consent solicitation materials in connection with annual or other meetings of holders of a class of securities registered pursuant to Section 12 of the Exchange Act. Persons soliciting proxies with respect to a class of securities registered under Section 12 of the Exchange Act must furnish a proxy statement containing the information required by Schedule 14A. The proxy statement is intended to provide security holders with the information necessary to enable them to vote in an informed manner on matters intended to be acted upon act security holders meetings.

Application for Parent's Insurance Benefits

Key Information

Abstract

SSA uses the information gathered by each benefit application to determine eligibility for Social Security benefits and the amount of the benefits. This information collection is voluntary. However, the collection of this information is mandatory for SSA to award or deny monthly benefits as parents of a deceased worker. The public can apply for this benefit using one of two modalities: (1) a paper application (Form SSA-7-F6); or (2) a field office interview (in person or by telephone), during which SSA employees enter applicant data directly into the Modernized Claims System (MCS). The respondents are applicants filing for Parent’s Insurance Benefits.

Incarcerated People's Communications Services (IPCS) 2026 Mandatory Data Collection, WC Docket Nos. 23-62, 12-375, FCC 25-75

Key Information

Abstract

On November 6, 2025, the Commission released the 2025 IPCS Order (FCC 25-75) in which it established a regulatory framework that is faithful to the Martha Wright-Reed Just and Reasonable Communications Act of 2022 and is also consistent with the record that has developed since its enactment. The Order created a durable, predictable, and lawful framework that properly balances the Commission’s implementation of the dual statutory mandates of the Martha Wright-Reed Act—just and reasonable rates for consumers and fair compensation for providers—and thereby ensures the continued availability of IPCS to incarcerated people and preserves correctional officials’ ability to provide safe and secure access to IPCS. In the 2025 IPCS Order, to ensure that it has the data needed to discharge its responsibilities under the Act, the Commission reaffirmed its prior delegation of authority to the Wireline Competition Bureau (WCB) and the Office of Economics and Analytics (OEA) to conduct an additional data collection to enable the Commission to set permanent rate caps for both audio and video IPCS. Pursuant to that delegation of authority, WCB and OEA released an Order detailing the specific requirements for the 2026 Mandatory Data Collection. The information collection will collect detailed, industry-wide data from all IPCS providers.

Request for Social Security Earnings Information

Key Information

Abstract

The Act permits wage earners, or their authorized representatives, to request Social Security earnings information from SSA using Form SSA-7050-F4. SSA uses the information the respondent provides on Form SSA-7050-F4 to verify the wage earner has: (1) earnings; (2) the right to access the correct Social Security Record; and (3) the right to request the earnings statement. If we verify all three items, SSA produces an Itemized Statement of Earnings (Form SSA-1826), which can be certified or non-certified, and includes the names and addresses of employers and the earnings associated with each employer, or a Certified Yearly Totals of Earnings, which only includes the total earnings for each year but does not include the names and addresses of employers, and sends it to the requestor. If we cannot verify the items, we will inform the respondent we cannot provide them with the requested Statement of Earnings due to this mismatch. The agency charges respondents for sending them an Itemized Statement of Earnings, or for a Certified Yearly Totals of Earnings. Respondents are wage earners and their authorized representatives who are requesting Itemized Statement of Earnings records or Certified Yearly Totals of Earnings.

FCC Application for Radio Service Authorization Wireless Telecommunications Bureau; Public Safety and Homeland Security Bureau

Key Information

Abstract

FCC Form 601 is a consolidated, multi-part application form that is used for market-based and site-based licensing for wireless telecommunications services, including public safety, which are filed through the Commission’s Universal Licensing System (ULS) or any other electronic filing interface the Commission develops. FCC Form 601 is composed of a main form that contains administrative information and a series of schedules used for filing technical and other information. This form is used to apply for a new license, to amend or withdraw a pending application, to modify or renew an existing license, cancel a license, submit required notifications, request an extension of time to satisfy construction requirements, request an administrative update to an existing license (such as mailing address change), or request a Special Temporary Authority License. Respondents are required to submit FCC Form 601 electronically including when applying for an authorization for which the applicant was the winning bidder in a spectrum auction. On February 18, 2026, the Commission adopted a Report and Order, FCC 26-9, in WT Docket 24-99, modified by an erratum released March 25, 2026, that established rules for the entire ten megahertz of the 896–901/935–940 MHz (900 MHz) band to be used for paired five megahertz broadband service. The Report and Order modified the requirements in sections 27.1503(b) and (c) and 27.1505(b) through (d) to reflect the option for paired five megahertz broadband service, in addition to the existing paired three megahertz option.

Farm Self-Employment Questionnaire

Key Information

Abstract

SSA collects the information on Form SSA-7156 on a voluntary, as needed basis to determine the existence of an agriculture trade or business which may affect the insured status or monthly benefit of a retirement applicant. When an applicant indicates self-employment as a farmer, SSA uses the SSA 7156 to determine the existence of an agricultural trade or business, and to calculate subsequent covered earnings for Social Security entitlement purposes the applicant is claiming. As part of the application process, we conduct a personal interview with the applicant, either face-to-face or via telephone, and document the interview using Form SSA-7156. Alternately, applicants have the option of using our Upload Documents portal (OMB No. 0960-0830), which allows them to complete and submit the form online in lieu of an interview. The respondents are applicants for Social Security benefits whose entitlement and amount of benefits depend on establishing if the worker received covered earnings from self employment as a farmer, and if so how much they earned.

Leasing - 12 CFR Part 714

Key Information

Abstract

NCUA requires the financially responsible party to guarantee the excess when the residual value of a lease will exceed 25% of the original cost of the leased property. The federal credit union must obtain and have on file financial documentation demonstrating that the guarantor has the resources to meet the guarantee. If a manufacturer is involved, the federal credit union must review financial statements for the period that would establish a reasonable financial trend. If an insurance company is involved, it must have a major company rating of at least a B+. The federal credit union will use the information as part of the risk assessment process to analyze and evaluate the financial capabilities and resources of a party that guarantees the residual value used in a leasing arrangement.

Certification by Religious Group

Key Information

Abstract

Under the Internal Revenue Code, Section 1402(g), certain self-employed religious group members may receive a waiver of all Social Security benefits and payments and thus will be exempt from paying Social Security taxes, if SSA determines they qualify for the waiver. A religious group’s authorized spokesperson completes and submits to SSA Form SSA–1458, Certification by Religious Group, so SSA can verify if religious organizational members meet or continue to meet the criteria for exemption. The respondents are spokespersons for religious groups or sects seeking a waiver for Social Security payments and benefits under IRS Code Section 1402(g).

Notice Regarding Substitution of Party Upon Death of Claimant Reconsideration of Disability Cessation

Key Information

Abstract

When a claimant dies before we make a determination on that person’s request for reconsideration of a disability cessation, SSA seeks a qualified substitute party who may choose to pursue the appeal. If SSA locates a qualified substitute party, the agency uses Form SSA–770–U4 to collect information about whether to pursue or withdraw the reconsideration request. We use this information as the basis for the decision to continue or discontinue with the appeals process. Respondents are individuals with a relationship to the deceased or the deceased’s estate who may be made a substitute party and proceed with or withdraw the reconsideration request.

Electronic Records Express (ERE) and Appointed Representative Online Services (AROS)

Key Information

Abstract

When a new source registers to use the website, SSA or state agency employees conduct the registration by phone or in person, and then keys the information into ERE. After completing the registration process, the registered user can provide evidence to the agency, and may request payment for providing evidence through the ERE website. SSA and state agency employees request the medical and educational records collected through the ERE website. The agency uses the information collected through ERE to make a determination on an Application for Benefits. We also use the ERE website to order and receive consultative examinations when we are unable to collect enough medical records to determine disability findings. The respondents are medical providers who evaluate or treat disability claimants or recipients, and other third parties with connections to disability applicants or recipients (ex: teachers and school administrators for child disability applicants), who voluntarily choose to use ERE to submit information.

Missing and Discrepant Wage Reports Letter and Questionnaire

Key Information

Abstract

Each year employers report the wage amounts they paid their employees to IRS for tax purposes, and separately to SSA for retirement and disability coverage purposes. Employers are required to report the same figures to SSA and the IRS. However, each year some of the employer wage reports SSA receives are different than the amounts the same employers report to the IRS. SSA uses Forms SSA–L93–SM, SSA–L94–SM, SSA–95–SM, and SSA–97–SM to work with employers to resolve the discrepancy and, ultimately, to ensure employees receive full credit for their wages. This information collection tool also includes the online IRS/SSA Reconciliation portal, which is a streamlined version of the SSA–95–SM and the SSA–97–SM. The IRS/SSA Reconciliation portal will guide employers to the appropriate solutions and will link the users to on-line tools to correct issues. The respondents are employers who reported different wage amounts to SSA than they reported to the IRS.

Reporting Requirements for Sea Otter Interactions with the Pacific Sardine Fishery; Coastal Pelagic Species Fishery Management Plan

Key Information

Abstract

This is a regular submission, an extension of a currently approved collection with no revisions. Under the Coastal Pelagic Species (CPS) Fishery Management Plan (FMP), CPS fishing vessels are required to report any interactions that occur between a CPS vessel and/or fishing gear and southern sea otters, which are listed as threatened under the Endangered Species Act. These reporting requirements satisfy the reasonable and prudent measures to ensure the continued protection of the species determined by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) in a biological opinion on the CPS fishery: If a southern sea otter is entangled in a net, regardless of whether the animal is injured or killed, the vessel operator must report this interaction within 24 hours to the Regional Administrator. While fishing for CPS, vessel operators must record all observations of otter interactions (defined as otters within encircled nets or coming into contact with nets or vessels, including but not limited to entanglement) with their purse seine net(s) or vessel(s). Reports must include the location (latitude and longitude) of the interaction and a description of the interaction itself.

Reverse Mortgage Products

Key Information

Abstract

On December 16, 2009, the OCC, FDIC, FRB and NCUA sought comment on the guidance, and they issued it in final form on August 17, 2010. The guidance focused on the need to provide adequate information to consumers about reverse mortgage products; to provide qualified independent counseling to consumers considering these products; and to avoid potential conflicts of interest. It also addressed related policies, procedures, internal controls, and third party risk management. Prior to the effective date of the final guidance, the Agencies obtained PRA approval from OMB for the information collection requirements contained therein. These information collection requirements included implementation of policies and procedures, training, and program maintenance. The requirements are outlined below: • Institutions offering reverse mortgages should have written policies and procedures that prohibit the practice of directing a consumer to a particular counseling agency or contacting a counselor on the consumer's behalf. • Policies should be clear so that originators do not have an inappropriate incentive to sell other products that appear linked to the granting of a mortgage. • Legal and compliance reviews should include oversight of compensation programs so that lending personnel are not improperly encouraged to direct consumers to particular products. • Training should be designed so that relevant lending personnel are able to convey information to consumers about product terms and risks in a timely, accurate, and balanced manner.
