Abstract: ORR’s Unaccompanied Alien Children (UAC) Program provides care and custody for UAC until they can be safely released to a sponsor, repatriated to their home country, or obtain legal status. ORR funds residential care provider facilities that provide temporary housing and other services to UAC in ORR custody. Care provider facilities are State- licensed, with the exception of temporary influx care facilities, and must meet ORR requirements to ensure a high-level quality of care. Services provided at care provider facilities include, but are not limited to, education, recreation, vocational training, acculturation, nutrition, medical, mental health, legal, and case management. ORR is submitting several instruments directly related to the care of UAC for processing pursuant to the Paperwork Reduction Act. These instruments allow ORR to process the release of UAC from ORR custody and provide services after release. The proposed instruments are: • Discharge Notification (Form R-2) • Notice to Immigration and Customs Enforcement’s (ICE) Chief Counsel – Release of Unaccompanied Alien Child to Sponsor and Request to Change Address (Form R-3) • Release Request (Form R-4) • Safety and Well-Being Follow-Up Call Report (Form R-6)

Emergency Justfication: This information collection consists of several instruments that allow the UAC Program to process the release of UAC from ORR custody and provide services after release. This is a time sensitive request because many of these forms are already in use and must continue to be in use in order for the UAC Program to meet its statutory obligations. Two of these ICs are currently approved under OMB #0970-0498 (expiration date: 7/31/20). ORR is reorganizing the instruments currently approved under OMB #0970-0498 into separate collections based on the purpose of the information collected. This Release of UAC from ORR Custody information collection includes two instruments from OMB #0970-0498 that are related to the release of UAC from ORR custody as well as two additional instruments that fall under this information collection category and are subject to PRA and require approval by OMB.
