to DHS. DHS may withhold information
provided in comments from public
viewing that it determines may impact
the privacy of an individual or is
offensive. For additional information,
please read the Privacy Act notice that
is available via the link in the footer of
http://www.regulations.gov.
Written comments and suggestions
from the public and affected agencies
should address one or more of the
following four points:
(1) Evaluate whether the proposed
collection of information is necessary
for the proper performance of the
functions of the agency, including
whether the information will have
practical utility;
(2) Evaluate the accuracy of the
agency’s estimate of the burden of the
proposed collection of information,
including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used;
(3) Enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be
collected; and
(4) Minimize the burden of the
collection of information on those who
are to respond, including through the
use of appropriate automated,
electronic, mechanical, or other
technological collection techniques or
other forms of information technology,
e.g., permitting electronic submission of
responses.
Overview of This Information
Collection
(1) Type of Information Collection
Request: Revision of a Currently
Approved Collection.
(2) Title of the Form/Collection:
Verification Request and Verification
Request Supplement.
(3) Agency form number, if any, and
the applicable component of the DHS
sponsoring the collection: G–845;
USCIS.
(4) Affected public who will be asked
or required to respond, as well as a brief
abstract: Primary: Federal Government;
State, local or Tribal government. In the
verification process, a participating
agency validates an applicant’s
immigration status by inputting
identifying information required into
the Verification Information System
(VIS), which executes immigration
status queries against a range of data
sources. If VIS returns an immigration
status and the benefit-issuing agency
does not find a material discrepancy
with the response and the documents
provided by the applicant, the
verification process is complete. Then,
the agency may use that immigration
status information in determining
whether or not to issue the benefit. In
extraordinary situations as determined

by the SAVE Program, agencies that do
not access the automated verification
system may request prior approval from
SAVE to query USCIS by filing Form G–
845. Although the Form G–845 does not
require it, if needed certain agencies
may also file the Form G–845
Supplement with the Form G–845,
along with copies of immigration
documents to receive additional
information necessary to make their
benefit determinations. While this
collection of information is primarily
electronic in nature through the VIS
query, these forms were originally
developed to facilitate communication
between all benefit-granting agencies
and USCIS to ensure that basic
information required to assess status
verification requests is provided.
(5) An estimate of the total number of
respondents and the amount of time
estimated for an average respondent to
respond: The estimated total number of
respondents for the information
collection VIS Query is 21,577,983 and
the estimated hour burden per response
is 0.085 hours.
(6) An estimate of the total public
burden (in hours) associated with the
collection: The total estimated annual
hour burden associated with this
collection is 1,834,129 hours.
(7) An estimate of the total public
burden (in cost) associated with the
collection: The estimated total annual
cost burden associated with this
collection of information is $0. The
collection of information is primarily
electronic in nature and USCIS does not
anticipate any mailings of the paper
Form G–845 and Supplement and the
cost associated with postage.
