SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
OMB Number: 3133–0102.
Title: Truth in Lending (TILA);
Regulation Z.
Type of Review: Revision of a
currently approved collection.
Abstract: The Truth in Lending Act
(TILA) was enacted to foster comparison
credit shopping and informed credit
decision making by requiring accurate
disclosure of the costs and terms of
credit to consumers and to protect
consumers against inaccurate and unfair
credit billing practices. TILA has been
revised numerous times since it took
effect, notably by passage of the Fair
Credit Billing Act of 1974, the
Consumer Leasing Act of 1976, the
Truth in Lending Simplification and
Reform Act of 1980, the Fair Credit and
Charge Card Disclosure Act of 1988, and
the Home Equity Loan Consumer
Protection Act of 1988. Historically,
TILA was implemented by the Board of
Governors of the Federal Reserve
System’s (FRB) Regulation Z, 12 CFR
part 226. The Dodd-Frank Wall Street
Reform and Consumer Protection Act
transferred FRB’s rulemaking authority
for TILA to the Consumer Financial
Protection Bureau (CFPB).
Regulation Z contains several
provisions that impose information
collection requirements: The
information collection requirements for
open-end credit products; the
information collection requirements for
closed-end credit; the information
collection requirements that apply to
both open- and closed-end mortgage
credit; the information collection
requirements for specific residential
mortgage types-namely, reverse
mortgages and high cost mortgages with
rates and fees above specified
thresholds; the information collection
requirements for private education
loans; and information collection
requirements related to Regulation Z’s
advertising and record retention rules.
The collection of information
pursuant to Part 1026 is triggered by
specific events and disclosures and

must be provided to consumers within
the time periods established under the
regulation. To ease the compliance cost
(particularly for small credit unions),
model forms and clauses are appended
to the regulation.
Affected Public: Private Sector: Notfor-profit institutions.
Estimated Number of Respondents:
4,622.
Estimated Number of Responses per
Respondent: 9,239.392.
Estimated Total Annual Responses:
42,704,470.
Estimated Hours per Response:
.08541.
Estimated Total Annual Burden
Hours: 3,647,389.
Reason for Change: The number of
responses per respondent increased and
the estimated hours per response
increased.
OMB Number: 3133–0180.
Title: Liquidity and Contingency
Funding Plans, 12 CFR 741.12.
Type of Review: Revision of a
currently approved collection.
Abstract: Section 741.12 establishes a
three-tier framework for FICUs, based
on asset size. FICUs with assets under
$50 million must maintain a basic
policy, those with assets of $50 million
and over must maintain a contingency
funding plan, and those with assets over
$250 million must maintain a
contingency funding plan and establish
a federal liquidity contingency source.
The reviews will conclude if federally
insured credit unions are maintaining
appropriate liquidity levels for the
amount of balance sheet risk exposure
and help prevent losses to credit unions
and the NCUSIF.
Affected Public: Private Sector: Notfor-profit institutions.
Estimated Number of Respondents:
4,645.
Estimated Number of Responses per
Respondent: 1.

Title: Higher-Risk Mortgage
Appraisals.
Type of Review: Revision of a
currently approved collection.
Abstract: Section 1471 of the DoddFrank Act established Truth in Lending
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 that exceeds the average
prime offer rate for a comparable
transaction as of the date the interest
rate is set by certain enumerated
percentage point spreads. This statutory
requirement is promulgated in 12 CFR
part 1026, Regulation Z, by the Bureau
of Consumer Financial Protection, the
Board of Governors of the Federal
Reserve, the Federal Deposit Insurance
Corporation, the Federal Housing
Finance Authority, the NCUA, and the
Office of the Comptroller of the
Currency. The information collections
are required by statute, are necessary to
protect consumers, and promote the
safety and soundness of creditors
making higher-risk mortgage loans.
Affected Public: Private Sector: Notfor-profit institutions.
Estimated Number of Respondents:
1,879.
Estimated Number of Responses per
Respondent: .46.
Estimated Total Annual Responses:

Abstract: Fostering the growth of a
globally competitive and diverse
research workforce and advancing the
scientific and innovation skills of the
Nation is a strategic objective of the
National Science Foundation (NSF). The
Nation’s global competitiveness
depends critically on the readiness of
the Nation’s Science, Technology,
Engineering and Mathematics (STEM)
workforce and NSF seeks to continue to
invest in programs that directly advance
this workforce.
As part of this effort, NSF invests in
a number of graduate student
preparedness activities to ensure they
SUMMARY:

are well-prepared for the 21st century
STEM Workforce and a supplemental
funding opportunity is available to
provide support for graduate students
through non-academic research
internships (INTERN Program) in any
sector of the U.S. economy.
The goal of the INTERN program is
three-fold:
1. To provide graduate students with
the opportunity to augment their
research assistantships with nonacademic research internship activities
and training opportunities that will
complement their academic research
training;
2. To allow graduate students to
pursue activities aimed at acquiring
professional development experience
that will enhance their preparation for
multiple career pathways after
graduation; and
3. To encourage the participation of
graduate students from groups that have
traditionally been underrepresented and
underserved in the STEM enterprise:
women, persons with disabilities,
African Americans/Blacks, Hispanic
Americans, American Indian, and
Alaska Natives.
Since 2017, the NSF’s INTERN
program has expanded with supports
from other federal agency partners; as of
March 2024, NSF has six (6) INTERN
funding opportunities providing
participants with direct access in
exploring career pathways across
various federal agencies and/or
government laboratories:

Abstract: The Truth in Lending Act (TILA) was enacted to foster
comparison credit shopping and informed credit decision making by

Consumer Leasing Act of 1976, the Truth in Lending Simplification and

Historically, TILA was implemented by the Board of Governors of the
Federal Reserve System's (FRB) Regulation Z, 12 CFR part 226. The Dodd-
Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act transferred FRB's
rulemaking authority for TILA to the Consumer Financial Protection

open-end credit products; the information collection requirements for
closed-end credit; the information collection requirements that apply
to both open- and closed-end mortgage credit; the information
collection requirements for specific residential mortgage types-namely,
reverse mortgages and high cost mortgages with rates and fees above
specified thresholds; the information collection requirements for
private education loans; and information collection requirements
related to Regulation Z's advertising and record retention rules.
The collection of information pursuant to Part 1026 is triggered by
specific events and disclosures and must be provided to consumers
within the time periods established under the regulation. To ease the
compliance cost (particularly for small credit unions), model forms and
