include important information, such as family size and biodata, and 
which often require entry into other systems to facilitate responses. 
This form is integrated with other elements of the Department's 
evolving information technology platform, enhancing the efficient 
handling of individual cases.

Methodology

    Information from applicants is collected through an electronic 
version of the Form DS-4317. Data from the application is stored in
