The overall annual hour burden for this collection has increased due to an increase in the estimated hour burden per response for Form I-539 due to a review of the form, and the addition of the biometric processing burden reporting that was not reported at the time of the last submission. The increase in burden is also to an increase in the number of respondents for the I-539 due to a more accurate estimate. For Form I-539 information collection, the estimated hour burden per response has been increased to 1.88 hours based on a better estimation of the activity required to gather all documentation, read the instructions, and for the paper filing, completing the paper form. The 28,673 hours reported for the ELIS filing of the program questions is part of the overall complete time that a respondent using ELIS will incur to complete the electronic version; the remaining burden will be reported in the ELIS Paperwork Reduction Act submission to OMB via OMB Control Number 1615-0122. The increase in the biometrics burden is the result of USCIS including this time burden for the activities required to authenticate a respondent's identity when presenting at a USCIS office for an interview. Also, there is a change in the ability to the filing of the Form I-539 electronically.
