Forms Being Removed and Transferred
into a New Information Collection
ORR UCB is in the process of
reorganizing its information collections
to create more unique information
collections that will contain fewer forms
under each OMB control number. This
will promote operational efficiency for
UCB by decreasing the burden
associated with renewing large
collections and enabling UCB to create
more purpose-specific information
collections. In addition, this will
facilitate OMB review by ensuring the
scope of the collection is targeted and
narrower than existing collections,
resulting in clearer requests. As part of
that reorganization effort, ORR plans to
move the following forms into a new
information collection titled ‘‘Incident
Reporting for the Unaccompanied
Children Bureau.’’ This request and the
request for the new Incident Reporting
information collection will be submitted
to OMB concurrently.
