DOJ seeks Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA) authorization for this
information collection for three (3) years. OMB authorization for an
information collection request (ICR) cannot be for more than three (3)
years without renewal. The DOJ notes that information collection
requirements submitted to the OMB for existing ICRs receive a month-to-
month extension while they undergo review.
Overview of This Information Collection
1. Type of Information Collection: New mandatory collection.
2. Title of the Form/Collection: Change of Address/Contact
Information Form.
3. Agency form number, if any, and the applicable component of the
Department of Justice sponsoring the collection: The agency form
numbers are EOIR-33/IC and EOIR-33/BIA, and the Executive Office for
Immigration Review is the Department component sponsoring the
collection.
4. Affected public who will be asked or required to respond, as
well as a brief abstract:
Affected Public: Individuals and households.
Abstract: Pursuant to 8 U.S.C. 1229(a)(1)(F)(ii) and 8 CFR
l003.15(d)(2), individuals in EOIR immigration proceedings must provide
the Immigration Court or Board of Immigration Appeals (BIA) with
written notice of changes to the individual's address and contact
information within five days of any change. To assist individuals in
providing such written notice to the agency, EOIR created the Form
EOIR-33. The form collects the individual's name, alien registration
number (A-number), former and current contact information (address,
phone number, and email address), and signature. The form instructs
that an individual must serve a copy of the Form EOIR-33 on the
opposing party. This information collection is required when an
individual in EOIR immigration proceedings changes their address or
contact information. The Form EOIR-33 is used by EOIR to maintain up to
date mailing addresses and contact information of individuals who are
subjects of immigration proceedings before the Immigration Courts and
BIA so that individuals receive official communications about their
immigration proceedings from EOIR and the opposing party. EOIR created
two versions of the Form EOIR-33, one for submission to the Immigration
Court (EOIR-33/IC) and one for submission to the BIA (EOIR-33/BIA).
Both versions of the form are available in seven languages (English,
Spanish, Chinese, Haitian Creole, Portuguese, Punjabi, and Russian) and
may be filed with the agency and served on the opposing party
electronically or by mail or hand delivery.
5. Obligation to Respond: Mandatory. See 8 U.S.C.
1229(a)(1)(F)(ii); 8 CFR l003.15(d)(2).
6. Total Estimated Number of Respondents: 321,457.
7. Estimated Time per Respondent: 5 minutes.
8. Frequency: Annually.
9. Total Estimated Annual Time Burden: 26,681.
10. Total Estimated Annual Other Costs Burden: $0.
