Abstract:
The Traveler Inquiry Form (TIF) is the form used to support the Traveler Redress Inquiry Program (TRIP), which will serve as a centralized intake office for traveler redress requests. After receipt, TRIP then passes the information to the relevant DHS component to process the request as appropriate (e.g., TRIP passes the form to TSA to initiate the Watch List Clearance Procedure). Individuals who feel that they have been unnecessarily subjected to additional screening, or denied or delayed boarding, or entry into or departure from the U.S. may complete the form. This form will be used by DHS to determine if there is an error in their record. This collection also serves to help DHS distinguish individuals from an actual individual on a watch list used by DHS, and it helps streamline and expedite future check-in or border crossing experiences.
Emergency Justfication:
On January 17, 2006, Secretary of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and Secretary of State Condoleeza Rice announced an initiative to Secure Borders and Open Doors in the Information Age (also known as the Rice-Chertoff Initiative). As part of that initiative, the Secretaries announced a goal to establish a government-wide traveler screening redress process to enable travelers who have complaints or legitimate issues to resolve those issues by providing a single source of relief. Various agencies within DHS and the Department of State have worked toward establishing the DHS Traveler Redress Inquiry Program (DHS TRIP). Without emergency approval, travelers may be subject to otherwise avoidable delays based on the current requirement to seek relief from multiple government agencies. The denial of the relief requested will cause DHS to continue to expend its scarce resources on low risk travelers. Finally, Congress has repeatedly signaled to the administration its desire to streamline the security screening process for travelers. For the reasons as stated herein, your expedited action on this request is greatly appreciated.
