The adjustment change to burden occurred due to re-estimation of the number of respondents. Estimated respondents and responses have decreased from 1,500 to 1,000, and thus hours have decreased from 125 to 83. There is no expected change to miscellaneous costs, as they are already minimal, based on the few foreign responses. NOTE: ROCIS does show an increase of $106, as when the information collection request was migrated to ROCIS, the cost was rounded down to zero.
