    The Department of Homeland Security (DHS), U.S. Immigration and 
Customs Enforcement (USICE) is submitting the following information 
collection request to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for 
review and clearance in accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 
1995. The information collection notice was previously published in the 
Federal Register on September 18, 2017, Vol. 82 FR 43565, allowing for 
a 60-day public comment period. USICE did not receive any comment 
relating to the 60-day notice. The purpose of this notice is to allow 
an additional 30 days for public comments.
    The burden estimates have been revised since the 60-day notice to 
better reflect the number of potential respondents to the collection. 
Written comments and/or suggestions regarding the items contained in 
this notice, especially regarding the estimated public burden and 
associated response time, must be directed to the OMB Desk Officer for 
U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, Department of Homeland 
Security and sent via electronic mail to dhsdeskofficer@omb.eop.gov. 
All submissions received must include the agency name and the OMB 
Control Number 1653-0038.
    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 agencies 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.
