This extension
without change is for the current I730, not the revised form that
was submitted. The revised form appears to be integrally tied to a
proposed rule that has yet to go final. INS may resubmit the
revised form and burden estimates concurrently with conclusion of
the rulemaking process. INS addendum of 05/21/97.
