There has been an increase of
50 burden hours with respect to the total burden hours previously
reported for this information collection. This change can be
attributed to USCIS revising this information collection by making
changes to the instructions and form to improve the overall
organization of its content and provide clarity. Standardized
language has also been added to conform to USCIS forms’ general
common language. USCIS has also adjusted the cost to respondents by
reporting the cost incurred by respondents in connection with this
type of request. The cost previously reported was related to the
Government Cost, which was $0. The new cost to respondents is
estimated at $6,313.
On behalf of this Federal agency, I certify that
the collection of information encompassed by this request complies
with 5 CFR 1320.9 and the related provisions of 5 CFR
1320.8(b)(3).

the proposed collection of information, that the certification
