Sections 106 and 202 of the Federal Credit Union Act require federally insured credit unions to make financial reports to the NCUA. Section 741.6 requires insured credit unions to submit a Credit Union Profile (NCUA Form 4501A) and update the Profile with 10 days of election or appointment of senior management or volunteer officials or 30 days of other changes in Program information. The NCUA website further directs credit unions to review and certify their Profiles every Call Report (OMB No. 3133â0004) cycle. Statistical information collected through the Profile is essential to NCUA supervision of federal credit unions. This information also facilitates NCUA monitoring of other credit unions with share accounts insured by the National Credit Union Share Insurance Fund (NCUSIF).

Currently, the NCUA Call Report (Form 5300) and Profile (Form 4501A) are cleared under OMB Control Number 3133-0004. At this time, NCUA plans to separate the two forms due to technology resources constraints that create different revision cycles. The Call Report will retain the 3133-0004 OMB control number and NCUA will request a new control number for the Profile.
The burden identified under OMB No. 3133-0004, prior to this separation, was estimated at 6 hours per response. With this submission, it is estimated that 4 hours is allotted to complete the Call Report and 2 hours is allotted to complete the Profile.
