Written comments and suggestions
from the public and affected agencies
should address one or more of the
following four points:
(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;
VerDate Mar<15>2010

Jkt 229001
(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 submission of
responses.
USCIS continually reviews its
information collection tools for
accuracy, completeness, and utility and,
as a result, the agency is proposing the
addition of a number of questions to
Form N–400. These additional questions
will allow USCIS to make more
informed decisions on the eligibility of
respondents to the form. Form N–400 is
the final information collection activity
that occurs before an eligibility
determination for naturalization is
made. Even if the applicant for
naturalization has received a previous
immigration benefit from USCIS, the
length of time that may have transpired
between the initial interaction that the
respondent had with USCIS on another
immigration benefit request and the
filing of the N–400 requires USCIS to
verify that actions taken by the
respondent during the intervening years
do not affect his or her eligibility for
naturalization. The form is also updated
to examine the inadmissibility grounds
that were added by the Intelligence
Reform and Terrorism Prevention Act of
2004. Public Law 108–458 (Dec. 17,
2004). USCIS added these questions as
required by the agreement reached
through a working group comprised of
representatives of affected agencies,
including the Departments of Justice
and State, and U.S. Immigration and
Customs Enforcement of DHS. These
additional questions are necessary for
USCIS to meet the statutory
requirements and the President’s
directive to make a determination that a
person is ineligible to naturalize
because of his or her past involvement
with terrorism, persecution, torture, or
genocide. See, Presidential
Proclamation—Suspension of Entry as
Immigrants and Nonimmigrants of
Persons Who Participate in Serious
Human Rights and Humanitarian Law
Violations and Other Abuses, at https://
www.whitehouse.gov/the-press-office/
2011/08/04/presidential-proclamationsuspension-entry-immigrants-andnonimmigrants. Because Form N–400
has changed significantly, the burden
estimate in this notice is not based on
the experience and observations of
actual public usage. USCIS would
appreciate and encourages the public’s

The
Cobell Settlement Agreement (as
confirmed by the Claims Resolution Act
of 2010 (Pub. L. 11–291) and approved
with finality after appeals to the U.S.
Supreme Court were exhausted
(Settlement)), provides, in part, for a
$1.9 billion Trust Land Consolidation
Fund (Fund). The Settlement charges
the Department of the Interior
(Department) with the responsibility to
expend the Fund within a 10-year
period to acquire, at fair market value,
fractional interests in trust or restricted
fee land that individuals are willing to
sell to the Department. The Secretary
has established the Buy-Back Program to
implement this aspect of the Settlement.
There are approximately 150
reservations with 2.9 million
purchasable fractional interests that are
owned by more than 218,000 unique
individuals. The overall goal of the BuyBack Program is to reduce the number
of those fractional interests through
voluntary land purchases, which will
create consolidated trust land bases for
beneficial use by tribal communities.
