Agency Information Collection Activities; Proposed Collection; Comments Requested; Firearms Transaction Record-ATF Form 5300.9 and 5300.9A (“Form 4473”)

The Department of Justice (DOJ), Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives (ATF), will be submitting the following information collection request (ICR) to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for review and approval in accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (PRA). The proposed information collection was previously published in the Federal Register, 91 FR 25448, on May 8, 2026, allowing a 60-day comment period. This interim notice informs the public that ATF is requesting that OMB extend the existing ICR 1140- 0020 without change. ATF will be publishing the usual second notice for a 30-day public comment period on proposed changes to the ICR thereafter. ATF received comments on the proposed changes to Form 4473 under this ICR that it needs some time to address. In addition, because some of the proposed changes and comments reflect proposed revisions to associated regulations \1\ whose public comment period does not end until a month after the 60-day ICR comment period ended, ATF needs additional time to assess those comments as well. However, the existing ICR is expiring at the end of August and thus does not afford sufficient time before it expires. As
