Burden Reduction Due to:

Short Statement: The estimated hour burden per response has been increased to 1.75 hours based upon a better estimation of the activity required to gather all documentation, read the instructions, and for the paper filing, completing the paper form which has increased the total annual hour burden for the paper filing of the form. The 447,925 hours reported for the ELIS filing of the program questions is part of the overall complete time that a respondent using ELIS will incur to complete the electronic version; the remaining burden will be reported in the ELIS Paperwork Reduction Act submission to OMB via OMB Control Number 1615-0122. The increase in the Biometrics burden is the result of USCIS including this time burden for the activities required to authenticate a respondent's identity when presenting at a USCIS office for an interview. Also, there is a change in the ability to the filing of the Form I-90 electronically.
