will be used by CISA to track and
manage external speaking engagements.
The information will also be used to
schedule and determine the most
appropriate CISA speaker based on date,
time, location, presentation format, and
topic. The form collects information
regarding the requested speaking
engagement, e.g., the host organization,
the speaking topic, agenda, and
additional event details.
The requested information helps CISA
determine whether the speaker should
attend the engagement and/or how CISA
should best prepare for the event. The
information is used to determine if
accepting the request will further CISA’s
mission.
The CISA Speakers Bureau team will
use the information to identify a speaker
and route the Speakers Request Form to
that person for consideration. The form
will be available on www.cisa.gov as a
fillable pdf and/or webform and will be
submitted to the CISA External Affairs
Speakers Bureau. The data collected
will be stored in an internal SharePoint
site.
The CISA Speaker Request Form was
previously approved by OMB on July
26, 2022, and is set to expire on July 31,
2025.
This is an extension of an existing
information collection.
The Office of Management and Budget
is particularly interested in comments
which:
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 submissions
of responses.

Background
E.O. 14161, ‘‘Protecting the United
States from Foreign Terrorists and Other
National Security and Public Safety
Threats,’’ directs implementation of
uniform vetting standards and
necessitates the collection of all
information necessary for a rigorous
vetting and screening of all grounds of
inadmissibility and removability or
bases for the denial of immigrationrelated benefits. See 90 FR 8451 (Jan. 20,
2025). Implementation of the directives
provided in the E.O. requires U.S.
Citizenship and Immigration Services
(USCIS) to collect standard data on
immigration forms and/or information
collection systems. This data will be
collected from certain populations of
individuals on applications for
immigration-related benefits and is
necessary for the enhanced identity
verification, vetting, and national
security screening and inspection
conducted by USCIS and required under
the E.O.
This collection of information is
necessary to comply with section 2 of
the E.O. to establish screening and
vetting standards and procedures to
enable USCIS to assess an alien’s
eligibility to receive an immigrationrelated benefit from USCIS. This data
collection is also used to validate an
applicant’s identity and to help
determine whether such grant of a
benefit poses a security or public-safety
threat to the United States.
USCIS will collect biographic
information on immigration information
collection instruments and systems.
USCIS will update its forms and
systems to collect additional
information from individuals who seek
admissibility or other benefits when that
information is not already collected.

New Information To Be Collected
U.S. Government departments and
agencies involved in screening and
vetting, to include USCIS, identified 24
data elements that would constitute a
new baseline threshold of data to be
collected for improved identity
verification and national security
vetting. These 24 core data elements
were published in the Federal Register
at 90 FR 11326 on March 3, 2025. These
six (6) new data elements are in
addition to and separate from the data
elements for which USCIS requested
comments in the March 3, 2025, generic
clearance notice, but they are also
needed for further identification and
national security vetting and will be
added to certain immigration benefit
request forms where the information is
not already collected.
The following six (6) data elements
are biographic and employment
identifiers used to help USCIS confirm
both an individual’s identity as it relates
to the submitted application and to
other records. These biographic
identifiers are also used by USCIS and
screening partners to help confirm or
disprove a relevant association between
an applicant and information of interest
and the strength of that association in
the context of the underlying
information.

Applicant information is collected to
maintain a record of persons applying
