Abstract of Proposed Collection
The purpose of the collection is to
enable the Department of State to better
identify and communicate with U.S.
citizens and lawful permanent residents
(LPRs) who may be in need of assistance
in a country experiencing a crisis. The
form asks U.S. citizens and LPRs
currently in a country experiencing a
crisis to share information with us about
their current plans, the number of
people in their group, and their exact
location. It also asks for their latest
contact information and contact
information for an emergency contact
not currently in the country.
The Department is utilizing this form
to acquire the most current and accurate
data possible to inform our consular
assistance efforts. It will allow us to
build a more current picture of how
many U.S. citizens plan to remain in the
country experiencing a crisis and any
who may need reimbursable loan
assistance to depart or any other
consular assistance. Completion of the
form is entirely voluntary.
Methodology
The collection will be completed 100
percent electronically. The respondent
will access the form at the following
link: https://cacms.state.gov/s/crisisintake. The link will also be accessible
from the crisis country’s country
information page on
www.travel.state.gov, the U.S. embassy
or consulate website for that country,
and other Department of State
communications. The Department may
also choose as appropriate to distribute
the form’s URL through emails from
@state.gov email addresses, or in
messaging sent as consular information
products. The link will only be
activated when there is a need to collect
the information.
Kevin E. Bryant,
Deputy Director, Office of Directives
Management, Department of State.
