Overview of This Information
Collection
Title: Stakeholder Scheduling
Application.
OMB Number: 1651–NEW.
Current Actions: New collection of
information.
Type of Review: This is a new
information collection.
Affected Public: Individuals and
Businesses.
Abstract: The Stakeholder Scheduling
capability is a mobile application within
the ‘‘CBP OneTM’’ app that will
standardize and automate the manual
process of brokers and travelers making
and updating appointments with CBP
for various services. Currently, Customs
and Border Protection Officers (CBPOs)
and CBP Agriculture Specialists
(CBPAS) spend significant time
exchanging phone calls, faxes, and
emails from stakeholders to schedule
inspection services. This includes
inspections of perishable cargo, nonperishable cargo that have been
identified for mandatory examinations,
and commercial vessel and commercial
or private air arrivals. Based on security
vetting, CBP notifies stakeholders that
certain cargo requires a scan by CBP
Non-Intrusive Inspection technology
prior to release. Stakeholders then
schedule with CBP a time and location
for the scans to be conducted. Pilots and
other stakeholders contact CBP to
schedule a time and location for the
inspections of commercial and private
carriers (including occupants) or
commercial vessels upon arrival from
foreign countries. Additionally,
travelers who carry-on sensitive
agriculture via air carrier are required to
be inspected by CBP and they must
notify CBP prior to their arrival into the
United States.

CBP’s collection of border crossing

Terrorism Prevention Act of 2004
(IRTPA), Pub. L. 108–458, 118 Stat.

Overview of This Information
Collection
Title: Electronic Visa Update System
(EVUS).
OMB Number: 1651–0139.
Form Number: N/A.
Current Actions: Revision of an
existing information collection with no
change in burden.
Type of Review: Revision.
Affected Public: Individuals.
Abstract: DHS developed the
Electronic Visa Update System (EVUS)
VerDate Sep<11>2014
18:04 Feb 22, 2022
Jkt 256001
to assure robust screening of foreign
nationals prior to travel to the United
States. EVUS provides for robust
traveler screening and verification to
better identify foreign nationals who
may be inadmissible to the United
States. This results in enhanced national
security, improved public safety, and a
reduced number of delays upon arrival
in the United States, all while
facilitating legitimate travel.
Initially, the program is limited to
nonimmigrant aliens presenting
passports issued by the People’s
Republic of China (PRC) containing
unrestricted, maximum validity B–1
(business visitor), B–2 (visitor for
pleasure), or combination B–1/B–2
visas, generally valid for 10 years. PRC
membership in EVUS became possible
on November 12, 2014, when, in a
reciprocal agreement, the U.S.
Department of State expanded the
validity of U.S. visitor visas issued to
PRC nationals from one to ten years.
To ensure compliance with the Visa
Waiver Program Improvement and
Terrorist Travel Prevention Act of 2015,
Pub. L. 114–113, 129 Stat. 2242, CBP
will continuously update the
application question with the list of
nationals ineligible to travel to the
United States under the VWP, as
designated in accordance with section
217(a)(12) of the Immigration and
Nationality Act, as amended (8 U.S.C.
1187(a)(12)).
Recent Changes: On May 31, 2019, the
Department of State updated its
immigrant and nonimmigrant visa
application forms to request additional
information, specifically social media
identifiers, from most U.S. visa
applicants worldwide. As a result, DHS
is changing the EVUS application social
media data field from optional to
mandatory. National security is the top
priority when adjudicating EVUS
applications, and every prospective
traveler to the United States undergoes
extensive security screening. CBP is
continually working to find mechanisms
to improve our screening processes to
protect U.S. visitors while supporting
legitimate travel to the United States.
DHS already requests information on
contacts, travel history, and family
members from all EVUS applicants.
Changing the social medial field to
mandatory in the EVUS application will
enhance our vetting capabilities and
assist in confirming applicants’
identities. While the field is mandatory,
applicants will still have the ability to
select ‘‘none’’.
