These instruments allow ORR to facilitate stakeholder visits to care provider facilities; obtain consent from UC to share their case file information; improve service delivery to UC; and ensure that serious issues are elevated to ORR and that all incidents and the response to such incidents are documented and resolved in a way that protects the interests of UC.
This request is for revisions to six forms currently approved under OMB #0970-0547, to add four new instruments, and to remove one currently approved instrument. Six instruments in this collection will be incorporated into ORRâs new case management system, UC Path. Details about the changes are described in section A15.

ORR plans to revise 6 of the 8 instruments currently approved under OMB #0970-0547. Four of the revised instruments will be incorporated into ORRâs new case management system, UC Path. The other 2 revised instruments are and will remain PDF instruments. In addition, ORR plans to add 4 new instruments to this collection â 2 will be incorporated into UC Path and 2 will be in PDF forms. ORR also plans to remove one currently approved instrument from this collection. Finally, ORR plans to replace the term âunaccompanied alien child (UAC)â with âunaccompanied child (UC)â throughout the instruments in this collection. Note that the screenshots of UC Path instruments attached to this package do not reflect this change because it has not yet been developed in the system. However, the revision in terminology will be made before the system is launched.
