CBP collects certain biographic and
biometric information from undocumented noncitizens prior to their
arrival at a POE, to streamline their processing at the POE. The
requested information is that which CBP would otherwise collect
from these individuals during primary and/or secondary processing.
This information is voluntarily provided by undocumented
noncitizens, directly or through non-governmental organizations
(NGOs) and international organizations (IOs). Providing this
information is not a prerequisite for processing under Title 8, but
reduces the amount of data entered by CBP Officers (CBPOs) and the
length of time an undocumented noncitizen remains in CBP custody.
The biographic and biometric information being collected in
advance, that would otherwise be collected during primary and/or
secondary processing at the POEs includes, but is not limited to,
descriptive information such as: Name, Data of birth, Country of
Birth, City of Birth, Country of Residence, Contact Information,
Addresses, Nationality, Employment history (optional), Travel
history, Emergency Contact (optional), U.S. and foreign addresses,
Familial Information (optional), Marital Status (optional),
Identity Document (not a WHTI compliant document) (optional),
Gender, Preferred Language, Height, Weight, Eye color and
Photograph. This information is submitted to CBP by undocumented
noncitizens on a voluntary basis, for the purpose of facilitating
and implementing CBP’s mission. This collection is consistent with
DHS’ and CBP’s authorities, including under 6 U.S.C. §§ 202 and
211(c). Pursuant to these sections, DHS and CBP are generally
charged with “[s]ecuring the borders, territorial waters, ports,
terminals, waterways, and air, land, and sea transportation systems
of the United States,” and “implement[ing] screening and targeting
capabilities, including the screening, reviewing, identifying, and
prioritizing of passengers and cargo across all international modes
of transportation, both inbound and outbound.”
Following the normal
clearance procedures under the PRA would delay their implementation
and harm diplomatic relations with the Government of Mexico. As
discussed, CBP certifies that this request meets the requirements
of 5 C.F.R. § 1320.13(a) and it is vital that this revised
collection be implemented immediately because: (1) this information
is essential to the mission of the Agency and (2) this information
is necessary prior to the timeframes established under the
PRA.
On behalf of this Federal agency, I certify that
the collection of information encompassed by this request complies
with 5 CFR 1320.9 and the related provisions of 5 CFR
1320.8(b)(3).
The following is a summary of the topics, regarding
the proposed collection of information, that the certification
covers:
(i) Why the information is being collected;
(ii) Use of information;
(iii) Burden estimate;
(iv) Nature of response (voluntary, required for a
benefit, or mandatory);
(v) Nature and extent of confidentiality; and
(vi) Need to display currently valid OMB control
number;
If you are unable to certify compliance with any of
these provisions, identify the item by leaving the box unchecked
and explain the reason in the Supporting Statement.
