This form is provided by the U.S.
Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) as a means for certain
inadmissible nonimmigrant aliens to apply for permission to enter
the United States. This form is also used by U.S. Customs and
Border Protection (CBP), to grant temporary permission to certain
inadmissible nonimmigrants who wish to enter the United States
through a port of entry pursuant to section 212(d)(3) of the INA
and 8 CFR 212.4. USCIS also uses this form to address
inadmissibility issues for T (Victims of Severe Forms of
Trafficking in Persons) and U (Victims of Criminal Activity)
petitioners. This is in accordance with 8 CFR 212.16, 8 CFR 212.17
and 8 CFR 214.14.
USCIS is reporting an increase
in the estimated hour burden to respondents. This increase is a
result of both an increase in the estimated number of respondents
for this collection of information, as well as changes to the form
to incorporate data elements that were previously collected on Form
G-325A. As a result of the changes to the form and instructions,
which will require more time from the applicant to review and
complete, USCIS is revising the estimated time burden upwards to
1.5 hours. USCIS did not report a cost burden in the previous
submission, but is now reporting an estimated cost to
respondents.
On behalf of this Federal agency, I certify that
the collection of information encompassed by this request complies
with 5 CFR 1320.9 and the related provisions of 5 CFR
1320.8(b)(3).
The following is a summary of the topics, regarding
the proposed collection of information, that the certification
covers:
(i) Why the information is being collected;
(ii) Use of information;
(iii) Burden estimate;
(iv) Nature of response (voluntary, required for a
benefit, or mandatory);
(v) Nature and extent of confidentiality; and
(vi) Need to display currently valid OMB control
number;
If you are unable to certify compliance with any of
these provisions, identify the item by leaving the box unchecked
and explain the reason in the Supporting Statement.
