continuation of the exception for Cuban
nationals, could lead to a surge in
migration of Cuban nationals seeking to
travel to and enter the United States
during the period between the
publication of a proposed and a final
rule.’’ 101 DHS found that ‘‘[s]uch a
surge would threaten national security
and public safety by diverting valuable
Government resources from
counterterrorism and homeland security
responsibilities. A surge could also have
a destabilizing effect on the region, thus
weakening the security of the United
States and threatening its international
relations.’’ 102 DHS concluded that ‘‘a
surge could result in significant loss of
human life.’’ 103
number 1651–0143). In connection with
the implementation of the process
described above, CBP is making
multiple changes under the PRA’s
emergency processing procedures at 5
CFR 1320.13, including increasing the
burden estimate and adding Nicaraguan
nationals as eligible for a DHS
established process that necessitates
collection of a facial photograph in CBP
OneTM. OMB has approved the
emergency request for a period of 6
months. Within the next 90 days, CBP
will immediately begin normal
clearance procedures under the PRA.
More information about both
collections can be viewed at

B. Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA)
Under the Paperwork Reduction Act
(PRA), 44 U.S.C. chapter 35, all
Departments are required to submit to
the Office of Management and Budget
(OMB), for review and approval, any
new reporting requirements they
impose. The process announced by this
notice requires changes to two
collections of information, as follows.
OMB has recently approved a new
collection, Form I–134A, Online
Request to be a Supporter and
Declaration of Financial Support (OMB
control number 1615–NEW). This new
collection will be used for the Nicaragua
parole process, and is being revised in
connection with this notice, including
by increasing the burden estimate. To
support the efforts described above,
DHS has created a new information
collection that will be the first step in
these parole processes and will not use
the paper USCIS Form I–134 for this
purpose. U.S.-based supporters will
submit USCIS Form I–134A online on
behalf of a beneficiary to demonstrate
that they can support the beneficiary for
the duration of their temporary stay in
the United States. USCIS has submitted
and OMB has approved a request for
emergency authorization of the required
changes (under 5 CFR 1320.13) for a
period of 6 months. Within the next 90
days, USCIS will immediately begin
normal clearance procedures under the
PRA.
OMB has previously approved an
emergency request under 5 CFR 1320.13
for a revision to an information
collection from CBP entitled Advance
Travel Authorization (OMB control
