Methodology
About OMB.report
OMB.report indexes public federal information-collection filings, OMB control numbers, IC collections, and supporting documents from Reginfo and related public data sources.
The site links OMB control numbers, ICR reference numbers, IC collections, and related public documents under stable public URLs.
Recent data is synced continuously. Historical backfill and verification run in the background until the archive converges.
Primary metadata is collected from Reginfo.gov. Binary documents are stored in managed object storage and streamed through this domain so headers and availability can be controlled consistently.
Wrapper pages remain the preferred citation target because they preserve filing context, identifiers, and related links.
When the site shows partial metadata, missing previews, or an incomplete document bundle, the importer queues a repair target and retries the missing artifact in the background.
For production operations, use the importer health report and sync logs first; request-time page repairs are a safety net, not the primary update path.
