Narrative of Changes Table

The purpose of the Narrative of Changes Table is to demonstrate changes to a collection since the previous approval.

Collection Title

Designation of Attorney In Fact / Revocation of Designation of Attorney In Fact

OMB Control No.:1653-0041

Current Expiration Date: 2/28/2026

Collection Instrument(s): I-312 / I-312A

Location	Current version	Proposed Change
I-312 page 1	“Further, I recognize that as the obligor I am responsible for any tax due on the interest accrued on this bond.”	“Further, I recognize that the Attorney in Fact will be responsible for any tax due on the interest accrued on this bond.”
I-312 & I-312A page 2 – insert clarifying instructions		ICE maintains privity of contract with Obligors on immigration bonds even if the Obligor designates an Attorney in Fact to receive the proceeds of the bond once ICE has taken action on it. ICE will not contact Attorneys in Fact, and instead will communicate only with Obligors unless Attorneys in Fact have questions about the issuance of U.S. Department of the Treasury checks for bond proceeds remittances. This condition applies even if an Obligor and an Attorney in Fact have a private agreement between themselves that passes any property interest an Obligor has in the bond proceeds to the Attorney in Fact. ICE is not in a position to ascertain whether such agreements are valid under applicable state law, and it therefore will give such agreements no effect in its management of immigration bonds.
