Overview of This Information Collection

    (1) Type of Information Collection: Extension, Without Change, of a

    (2) Title of the Form/Collection: Consideration of Deferred Action

    (3) Agency form number, if any, and the applicable component of the 
DHS sponsoring the collection: I-821D; USCIS.
    (4) Affected public who will be asked or required to respond, as 
well as a brief abstract: Primary: Individuals or Households. The 
information collected on this form is used by USCIS to determine 
eligibility of certain individuals who were brought to the United 
States as children and meet the following guidelines to be considered 
for deferred action for childhood arrivals:
    1. Were under the age of 31 as of June 15, 2012;
    2. Came to the United States before reaching their 16th birthday, 
and established residence at that time;
    3. Have continuously resided in the United States since June 15, 
2007, up to the present time;
    4. Were present in the United States on June 15, 2012, and at the 
time of making their request for consideration of deferred action with 
USCIS;
    5. Entered without inspection before June 15, 2012, or their lawful

veteran of the Coast Guard or Armed Forces of the United States; and
    7. Have not been convicted of a felony, significant misdemeanor, 
three or more other misdemeanors, and do not otherwise pose a threat to

    These individuals will be considered for relief from removal from

of the deferred action for childhood arrivals process. Those who submit 
requests with USCIS and demonstrate that they meet the threshold 
guidelines may have removal action in their case deferred for a period 
of two years, subject to renewal (if not terminated), based on an 
individualized, case by case assessment of the individual's equities. 
Only those individuals who can demonstrate, through verifiable 
documentation, that they meet the threshold guidelines will

exceptional circumstances.

of time estimated for an average respondent to respond: 58,314 
respondents responding for initial request at 3 hours per response and 
200,306 respondents responding for renewal request at 3 hours per 
response.
