NCUA Call Report Extended Three Years
The NCUA proposes to extend the NCUA Form 5300 Call Report information collection for three years. All federally insured credit unions must continue filing quarterly Call Report data through CUOnline; the agency estimates 4,455 respondents, an average burden of 4.0 hours per response, and total annual burden of 71,280 hours. The Call Report collection is mandatory under 12 U.S.C. 1756, 1766, and 1782.
Call Report Instructions Revised for Clarity
NCUA is proposing revisions to the Form 5300 Call Report instructions to improve clarity and promote accurate reporting; those revised instructions are proposed to take effect with the September 30, 2025 report date. NCUA states the proposed instruction changes would not have a material impact on the existing burden estimates.
