SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 
    Title of Collection: Consumer Complaint Intake System Company 
Portal Boarding Form.
    OMB Control Number: 3170-0054.
    Type of Review: Extension of a currently approved information

    Affected Public: Private sector.

    Abstract: Section 1013(b)(3)(A) of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street 
Reform and Consumer Protection Act, Public Law 111-203, requires the 
Bureau to ``facilitate the centralized collection of, monitoring of, 
and response to consumer complaints regarding consumer financial 
products or services.'' \1\ In furtherance of its statutory mandates 
related to consumer complaints, the Bureau utilizes a Consumer 
Complaint Intake System Company Portal Boarding Form (Boarding Form) to 
sign up companies for access to the secure, web-based Company Portal 
(Company Portal). The Company Portal allows companies to view and 
respond to complaints submitted to the Bureau, supports the efficient 
routing of consumer complaints to companies, and enables a timely and 
secure response by companies to the Bureau and consumers.\2\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ Codified at 12 U.S.C. 5493(b)(3)(A). See also Dodd-Frank 
Act, section 1034 (discussing responses to consumer complaints), 
codified at 12 U.S.C. 5534; section 1021(c)(2) (noting that one of 
the Bureau's primary functions is ``collecting, investigating, and 
responding to consumer complaints''), codified at 12 U.S.C. 
5511(c)(2).
    \2\ In addition to the Boarding Form for companies, the Bureau 
utilizes separate OMB-approved forms to board government agencies 
and congressional offices onto their own distinct portals to access 
certain complaint information through OMB Control Number 3170-0057 
(Consumer Response Government and Congressional Boarding Forms; 
expires 6/30/2022).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Register notice on 1/28/2022 (87 FR 4570) under Docket Number: CFPB-
2022-0005. The Bureau is soliciting comments on: (a) Whether the

the functions of the Bureau, including whether the information will

the burden of the collection of information, including the validity of 
the methods and the assumptions used; (c) Ways to enhance the quality,
