Abstract of Proposed Collection
MyTravelGov is an electronic account creation and validation
portal. U.S. citizens who wish to submit applications for consular
services online (electronic applications) instead of submitting paper
applications must create a unique user account through MyTravelGov. The
unique user account will safeguard the submission and storage of
personally identifiable information necessary to process an online
application. The information collected will also be used by servers to
validate subsequent log-ons to the unique user account or attempts to
reset the account password to ensure the security and integrity of
accounts.
Methodology
Information is collected when an individual logs on to the
MyTravelGov web portal and elects to create a unique user account.
Kevin E. Bryant,
Deputy Director, Office of Directives Management, Department of State.
