Download as PDF Federal Register / Vol. 89, No. 170 / Tuesday, September 3, 2024 / Notices tkelley on LAP7H3WLY3PROD with NOTICES2 the requirements of section 207(d) of the Immigration and Nationality Act (8 U.S.C. 1157) and authorized by the annual Presidential Determination on Refugee Admissions. The P–3 category is available to qualifying family members of U.S.-based residents (persons already admitted to the U.S. as refugees or who were granted asylum in the United States, including persons who may now be lawful permanent residents or U.S. citizens). Qualifying family members of U.S.-based residents include spouses, unmarried children under age 21, and parents. Eligible P–3 nationalities are determined on an annual basis by the President. In order to access the USRAP through P–3, an applicant must have an Affidavit of Relationship (AOR) filed on his or her behalf by a U.S-based family member. The AOR also informs the U.Sbased family member that DNA evidence of all claimed parent-child relationships between the U.S-based family member and parents and/or unmarried children under 21 is required as a condition of access to P–3 processing; it further informs the U.Sbased family member that the costs of DNA testing will be borne by the U.S. Government. DNA testing between the QFM and any derivative applicant(s) (unmarried child under the age of 21), to prove the existence of their claimed family relationship, will be at no expense to the U.S. Government. Methodology This information collection currently involves the limited use of electronic techniques. An anchor may complete an AOR at any local office of a Resettlement Agency (RA) that has a cooperative agreement with the Department of State to assist refugees who have been resettled in the United States. In order to file an AOR, a U.Sbased family member must be at least 18 years of age and have been admitted to the United States as a refugee or granted asylum in the United States no more than five years prior to the filing of the AOR. The AOR is available electronically, is completed electronically with the assistance of RA staff, and is submitted electronically by RA staff to a Department of Statecontracted facility, where it is manually uploaded into the USRAP case management system. In addition, the RA local office prints a copy for the respondent’s ink signature, then submits the signed form to the RA headquarters. Kelly A. Gauger, Deputy Director, PRM/A, Department of State.
