Abstract: This new information collection is necessary to assist ICE in enforcement. By identifying aliens who intend to voluntarily depart the country in compliance with U.S. law, ICE can focus efforts on aliens remaining in the country unlawfully without the intent to comply with departure from the United States as required. This collection would provide a way for aliens to voluntarily report intended departure information to ICE.

Emergency Justfication: Through this collection, DHS collects biographic and biometric data elements, via mobile application, from aliens who wish to self-depart from the United States. DHS uses that information to facilitate self-departure of those aliens. DHS seeks reinstatement of this collection because “public harm is reasonably likely to result if normal clearance procedures are followed.
