Overview of This Information Collection (1) Type of Information Collection: Revision of a Currently Approved Collection. VerDate Sep<11>2014 17:32 Sep 11, 2023 Jkt 259001 (2) Title of the Form/Collection: Online Request to be a Supporter and Declaration of Financial Support. (3) Agency form number, if any, and the applicable component of the DHS sponsoring the collection: I–134A; USCIS. (4) Affected public who will be asked or required to respond, as well as a brief abstract: Primary: Individuals or households. USCIS uses Form I–134A to determine whether a U.S.-based individual has sufficient financial resources and access to those funds to support the beneficiary named on the Form I–134A for the duration of their temporary stay in the United States, as well as to obtain information concerning whether the beneficiary merits a favorable exercise of discretion under the statutory parole standard. Form I–134A is filed by a U.S.-based individual (the potential supporter) to request to be a supporter, agree to provide financial support to the beneficiary named on the form during the beneficiary’s period of stay in the United States, and to provide information concerning why the beneficiary warrants a discretionary grant of parole. (5) An estimate of the total number of respondents and the amount of time estimated for an average respondent to respond: The estimated total number of respondents for the information collection I–134A is 1,202,000, and the estimated hour burden per response is 2.11 hours. (6) An estimate of the total public burden (in hours) associated with the collection: The total estimated annual hour burden associated with this collection is 2,536,220 hours. (7) An estimate of the total public burden (in cost) associated with the collection: The estimated total annual cost burden associated with this collection of information is $0.00. USCIS specifically requests comments on the agency’s estimate of the number of respondents who will submit Form I– 134A, on average, in a given 12-month period. USCIS has added to the burden estimate for this collection, to account for any potential expansion(s) that align with new or revised policies or processing capacity over the next three years. USCIS also notes that the number of requests to be a supporter that USCIS is currently receiving exceeds our initial estimates. Anecdotal evidence indicates that supporters are submitting multiple, duplicate requests for the same beneficiary. USCIS welcomes public input on why supporters are creating duplicate requests to inform our estimates. PO 00000 Frm 00064 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 62587 Dated: September 7, 2023. Samantha L.
