    The information collection notice was previously published in the 
Federal Register on September 15, 2017, at 82 FR 43395, allowing for a 
60-day public comment period. USCIS did not receive any comments in

    You may access the information collection instrument with 
instructions, or additional information by visiting the Federal 
eRulemaking Portal site at: http://www.regulations.gov and enter USCIS-
2008-0007 in the search box. Written comments and suggestions from the 
public and affected agencies should address one or more of the 
following four points:
    (1) Evaluate whether the proposed collection of information is 
necessary for the proper performance of the functions of the agency, 
including whether the information will have practical utility;
    (2) Evaluate the accuracy of the agency's estimate of the burden of 
the proposed collection of information, including the validity of the 
methodology and assumptions used;
    (3) Enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to 
be collected; and
    (4) Minimize the burden of the collection of information on those 
who are to respond, including through the use of appropriate automated, 
electronic, mechanical, or other technological collection techniques or 
other forms of information technology, e.g., permitting electronic 
submission of responses.

Overview of This Information Collection

    (1) Type of Information Collection Request: Revision of a Currently 
Approved Collection.
    (2) Title of the Form/Collection: Application to File Declaration 
of Intention.
    (3) Agency form number, if any, and the applicable component of the 
DHS sponsoring the collection: N-300; USCIS.
    (4) Affected public who will be asked or required to respond, as 
well as a brief abstract: Primary: Individuals or households. The Form 
N-300 is used by lawful permanent residents to file a Declaration of 
Intention to become a United States citizen (``Declaration of 
Intention''). Although the Declaration of Intention is not required for 
naturalization, some lawful permanent residents find it necessary to 
file Form N-300 to fulfill requirements of states that mandate specific 
documentation from resident aliens seeking to work in certain 
occupations or professions, or to obtain various licenses. The Form N-
300 facilitates this process.
    (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 N-300 is 18 
and the estimated hour burden per response is .75 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 13.5 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 $508.50.
