    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 of Consumer Financial Protection (``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\ This information collection reflects comments received in 
response to the May 14, 2018 (83 FR 22254) Notice and Request for 
Comment, seeking input from the public regarding renewal of the 
Boarding Form with modifications to improve efficiency and reduce 
company burden.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \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 No. 3170-0057 
(Consumer Response Government and Congressional Boarding Forms; 
expires December 31, 2018).
