Federal Register / Vol. 83, No. 158 / Wednesday, August 15, 2018 / Notices
If VIS does not locate a record
pertaining to the applicant during an
electronic initial verification, a second
step additional verification must be
requested by the agency, so that a Status
Verifier can manually check the records.
If the Status Verifier cannot determine
status during the second step additional
verification, they will request the
agency to submit a copy of the
applicant’s immigration document. The
immigration document can be submitted
using scan and upload or by attaching
it to a Form G–845 and mailing it to the
Status Verifier.
Applicants may check on the
processing of additional verification
through the SAVE Case Check web
portal, found at http://www.uscis.gov/
save/save-case-check. SAVE Case Check
permits applicants to use the SAVE
verification numbers associated with
their benefit applications or the
immigration identification numbers and
dates of birth provided to those benefit
granting agencies to access this
information.
In limited cases, agencies may query
USCIS by filing Form G–845 by mail.
Although the Form G–845 does not
require it, if needed, certain agencies
may also file the Form G–845
Supplement with the Form G–845,
along with copies of immigration
documents to receive additional
information necessary to make their
benefit determinations. These forms
were developed to facilitate
communication between all benefitgranting agencies and USCIS to ensure
that basic information required to assess
status verification requests is provided.
(5) An estimate of the total number of
respondents and the amount of time
estimated for an average respondent to
respond: The estimated total number of
respondents for the information
collection G–845 Verification Request is
162,106 and the estimated hour burden
per response is 0.083 hours; for the
information collection VIS Query the
estimated total number of respondents
is 23,293,981 and the estimated hour

including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used;
(3) Enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be
collected; and
(4) Minimize the burden of the
collection of information on those who
are to respond, including through the
use of appropriate automated,
electronic, mechanical, or other
technological collection techniques or
other forms of information technology,
e.g., permitting electronic submission of

Overview of This Information
Collection
(1) Type of Information Collection:
Revision of a Currently Approved
Collection.
(2) Title of the Form/Collection:
Application for Certificate of
Citizenship.
(3) Agency form number, if any, and
the applicable component of the DHS
sponsoring the collection: N–600;
USCIS.
(4) Affected public who will be asked
or required to respond, as well as a brief
abstract: Primary: Individuals or
households. Form N–600 collects
information from respondents who are
requesting a Certificate of Citizenship
because they acquired United States
citizenship either by birth abroad to a
U.S. citizen parent(s), adoption by a
U.S. citizen parent(s) or after meeting
eligibility requirements after the
naturalization of a foreign born parent.
This form is also used by applicants
requesting a Certificate of Citizenship
because they automatically became a
citizen of the United States after
meeting eligibility requirements for
acquisition of citizenship by foreign
born children. Form N–600 can also be
filed by a parent or legal guardian on
behalf of a minor child. The form
standardizes requests for the benefit,
and ensures that basic information
required to assess eligibility is provided
by applicants.
USCIS uses the information collected
on Form N–600 to determine if a
Certificate of Citizenship can be issued
to the applicant. Citizenship acquisition
laws have changed throughout the
history of the INA and different laws
apply to determine whether the
applicant automatically became a U.S.
citizen. However, step children cannot
acquire U.S. citizenship under any
provision of the INA.
(5) An estimate of the total number of
respondents and the amount of time
estimated for an average respondent to
respond: The estimated total number of
respondents for the information
collection N–600 is 67,000 and the

estimated hour burden per response is
1.58 hours; the estimated total number
of respondents for the information
collection Biometrics is 67,000 and the
estimated hour burden per response is

burden (in hours) associated with the
collection: The total estimated annual
hour burden associated with this
collection is 184,250 hours.
(7) An estimate of the total public
burden (in cost) associated with the
collection: The estimated total annual
cost burden associated with this
collection of information is $8,207,500.
