Approved for one
year. OMB asks the DOJ Clearance Office to determine if the use of
this form, earlier put in place without clearance,is causing any
significant problems. We would also like evaluation of the burden
of certain elements such as provision of fingerprinting and
photographs for larger number of respondants. Costs in question 13
have been doublecounted and some are inappropriately included
(fees). Another round of notices will not be necessary to extend
the one year clearance an additional two years.
