Affected Public: Air Travelers.
Abstract: The Transportation Security
Administration (TSA) is implementing
the TSA Pre✓TM Application Program 1
pursuant to its authority under sec.
109(a)(3) of the Aviation and
Transportation Security Act (ATSA),
Public Law 107–71 (115 Stat. 597, 613,
Nov. 19, 2001, codified at 49 U.S.C. 114
note), as well as the DHS
Appropriations Act, 2006, Public Law
109–90 (119 Stat. 2064, 2088–89, Oct.
18, 2005), which authorizes TSA to
establish and collect a fee for any
registered traveler program by
publication of a notice in the Federal
Register. TSA will publish a fee notice
separately in the Federal Register.
Under the TSA Pre✓TM Application
Program, individuals may submit
information to TSA, which in turn will
use the information to conduct a
security threat assessment of of law
enforcement, immigration, and
intelligence databases, including a
fingerprint-based criminal history
records check conducted through the
Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI).
The results will be used by TSA to
decide if an individual poses a low risk
to transportation or national security.
Approved applicants will be issued a
Known Traveler Number which they
will use when making travel
reservations. Airline passengers who
submit Known Traveler Numbers when
making airline reservations are eligible
for expedited screening on flights
originating from U.S. airports with TSA
Pre✓TM lanes.2
TSA seeks to establish enrollment
sites and implement a mobile
enrollment capability to support the
TSA Pre✓TM Application Program.
Those seeking TSA Pre✓TM expedited
screening via the TSA Pre✓TM
Application Program will have the
option to apply online or in-person by
submitting biographic information.
Applicants then will submit biometric
data (e.g., fingerprints) in-person at an
1 In TSA’s notice of intent to request approval
from OMB of a new public collection of information
published on July 23, 2013 (78 FR 44140), the
program was referred to as the ‘‘TSA Pre✓TM
Trusted Traveler Program.’’ In this notice, the
program is called the ‘‘TSA Pre✓TM Application
Program.’’
2 Passengers who are eligible for expedited
screening through a dedicated TSA Pre✓TM lane
typically will receive more limited physical
screening, e.g., will be able to leave on their shoes,
light outerwear, and belt, to keep their laptop in its
case, and to keep their 3–1–1 compliant liquids/gels
bag in a carry-on. For airports with TSA Pre✓TM
lanes, see http://www.tsa.gov/tsa-precheck/tsaprecheck-participating-airports.

enrollment center and pay the fee to
TSA’s contracted vendor. TSA also
invites all TSA Pre✓TM applicants to
complete an optional survey to gather
information on the applicants’ overall
customer satisfaction with the service
received at the enrollment center. The
optional survey will be administered at
the end of the in-person enrollment
service.
Eligibility for TSA Pre✓TM is within
the sole discretion of TSA, which will
notify applicants who are denied
eligibility in writing of the reasons for
the denial. If initially deemed ineligible,
applicants will have an opportunity to
correct cases of misidentification or
inaccurate criminal or immigration
records. Consistent with 28 CFR 50.12
in cases involving criminal records, and
before making a final eligibility
decision, TSA will advise the applicant
that the FBI criminal record discloses
information that would disqualify him
or her from the TSA Pre✓TM Application
Program.
Within 60 days after being advised
that the criminal record received from
the FBI discloses a disqualifying
criminal offense, the applicant must
notify TSA in writing of his or her
intent to correct any information he or
she believes to be inaccurate. The
applicant must provide a certified
revised record, or the appropriate court
must forward a certified true copy of the
information, prior to TSA approving
eligibility of the applicant for TSA
Pre✓TM. With respect to citizenship
and/or immigration records, within 60
days after being advised that the
citizenship or immigration records
indicate that the applicant is ineligible
for TSA Pre✓TM, the applicant must
notify TSA in writing of his or her
intent to correct any information
believed to be inaccurate. TSA will
review any information submitted and
make a final decision. If neither
notification nor a corrected record is
received by TSA, TSA may make a final
determination to deny eligibility.
Individuals who TSA determines are
ineligible for the TSA Pre✓TM
Application Program will continue to be
screened at airport security checkpoints
according to TSA standard screening
protocols.
TSA Pre✓TM will enhance aviation
security by permitting TSA to better
focus its limited security resources on
passengers who are more likely to pose
a threat to civil aviation, while also
facilitating and improving the
commercial aviation travel experience
for the public. Travelers who choose not
to enroll in this initiative are not subject
to any limitations on their travel
because of their choice; they will be

processed through normal TSA
screening before entering the sterile
areas of airports. TSA also retains the
authority to perform random screening
on TSA Pre✓TM members and any other
travelers authorized for expedited
physical screening.

Respondents: 392,876.
Estimated Annual Burden Hours: An
estimated 248,841 hours annually based
on a five-year projection.

person enrollment fee good for five
