Abstract of Proposed Collection
The U.S. Government agreed that
Afghans paroled under Operation Allies
Welcome (OAW) or those paroled then
subsequently granted Temporary
Protected Status (TPS), could request
U.S. Government-supported family
reunification support for their spouses
and unmarried children under 21 who
remain physically present in
Afghanistan. The Office of the
Coordinator for Afghan Relocation
Efforts (CARE) is using the DS–4317 to
collect this information under
emergency authorization from OMB.
This authorization expires on 7/31/
2023.
State requires a publicly advertised
system that is sustainable and efficient
and that enables data validation with
U.S. Government databases. The
Department requests continuance of the
existing authority to use the DS–4317 to
acquire the most current and accurate
data possible to inform its relocation
assistance efforts. It will enable the

Department to build a current picture of
how many Afghans may be eligible for
relocation and to progress with assisting
them to depart Afghanistan. The online
form helps avoid unstructured requests
for assistance, such as those that arrive
via email messages, which may not
include important information, such as
family size and their biodata, and which
often require entry into other systems to
facilitate responses. This form is
integrated with other elements of the
Department’s evolving information
technology platform, enhancing the
efficient handling of individual cases.
The information on this form is
requested pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 301
(Secretary of State’s authorities with
respect to Management of the
Department of State), 22 U.S.C. 2651a
(Organization of the Department of
State), and 8 U.S.C. 1101–1537
(Immigration and Nationality Act of
1952, as amended).
Methodology
Information from applicants is
collected through an electronic version
of the DS–4317. Data from the
application is stored in IRM’s
ServiceNow platform.

Deputy Director, Office of Directrices
Management, Department of State.
