Abstract: The U.S. Repatriation Program (Program) is authorized by Section 1113 of the Social Security Act (42 U.S.C. § 1313) and the assistance provided to mentally ill repatriates found under 24 U.S.C. §§ 321 - 329. This Program also provides services for emergency repatriations which are authorized under Section 1113 and by the extension of the Executive Order (E.O.) precedent, E.O. 12656 (53 CFR 47491). Program regulations are in 45 CFR 211 & 212. The current collection includes eight forms with translations in six languages. The information collected through these forms allows the Office of Human Services Emergency Preparedness and Response (OHSEPR) to fulfill its statutory responsibilities to provide temporary assistance to repatriates. The Program also provides training and technical assistance to states and territories for routine and emergency repatriation. Additionally, OHSEPR provides funding to states for emergency repatriation planning, training, and exercises. OHSEPR is proposing six new forms to support these activities.
