Terms of Clearance: This information collection is approved for one year to provide DHS additional time to transition to the paperless Form I-94W, and to work with the carrier industry to make the necessary systems changes, in order to enable a fully paperless VWP and ESTA program. Approval of future submissions of this ICR are contingent on elimination (or substantial reduction) in the use of the paper Form I-94W. Future approval also is contingent on progress in developing and implementing an electronic travel authorization system, modeled after ESTA, for the Guam Visa Waiver Program to replace the paper Form I-94 used in that program.

Abstract: Form I-94 (Arrival/Departure Record) and Form I-94W (Nonimmigrant Visa Waiver Arrival/Departure Record) are used to document a traveler's admission into the United States. These forms include date of arrival, visa classification and the date the authorized stay expires. The forms are also used by business employers and other organizations to confirm legal status in the United States. The Electronic System for Travel Authorization (ESTA) applies to aliens traveling to the United States under the Visa Waiver Program (VWP) and requires that VWP travelers provide information electronically to CBP before embarking on travel to the United States.
