This form is provided by the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) as a means for certain inadmissible nonimmigrant aliens to apply for permission to enter the United States. This form is also used by U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP), to grant temporary permission to certain inadmissible nonimmigrants who wish to enter the United States through a port of entry pursuant to section 212(d)(3) of the INA and 8 CFR 212.4. USCIS also uses this form to address inadmissibility issues for T (Victims of Severe Forms of Trafficking in Persons) and U (Victims of Criminal Activity) petitioners. This is in accordance with 8 CFR 212.16, 8 CFR 212.17 and 8 CFR 214.14.
There is a decrease in the total annual hour burden due to a decrease in the estimated average burden per response from 1.5 hours to 1.18 hours for the I-192 paper filings and from 1.25 hours to 0.93 hours for e-SAFE filings. This result stems from the removal of questions and instructional content that USCIS determined are no longer needed to adjudicate this information collection and the inclusion of new condensed signature language. There are no other program changes.
There are no changes to the total estimated annual cost burden with this update.
