proposed collection of information, including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used;

the information to be collected can be enhanced; and
--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 (check justification or form 83):
Revision of a currently approved collection.
2. The Title of the Form/Collection: Firearms Disabilities for
Nonimmigrant Aliens.
3. The agency form number, if any, and the applicable component of
the Department sponsoring the collection:
Form number (if applicable): None.
Component: Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives,
U.S. Department of Justice.
4. Affected public who will be asked or required to respond, as
well as a brief abstract:
Primary: Business or other for-profit.
Other (if applicable): Individuals or households.
Abstract: Nonimmigrant alien information will be used to determine
their eligibility to obtain a Federal firearms license, and/or
purchase, obtain, possess, or import a firearm. Nonimmigrant aliens
also must maintain these documents while in possession of firearms or
ammunition in the United States, for verification purposes.
5. An estimate of the total number of respondents and the amount of
time estimated for an average respondent to respond: An estimated 1,970
respondents will provide information for this information collection
once each year, and it will take each respondent approximately 4.08
minutes to complete their responses.
6. An estimate of the total public burden (in hours) associated
with the collection: The estimated annual public burden associated with
this collection is 133.96 or 134 hours, which is equal to 1,970 (# of
respondents) * .068 (5.08 minutes).
7. An Explanation of the Change in Estimates: The increase in the
total responses and burden hours by 536, and 36 hours respectively
since the last renewal of this information collection in 2018, are due
to more nonimmigrant aliens applying to obtain and renew federal
firearms licenses.
