Short Statement:
ORR revised all four instruments currently approved under OMB #0970-0552 and requests to reinstate one instrument previously approved under OMB #0970-0498 and add it to this collection. All instruments will be incorporated into ORR’s new case management system, UC Path. Finally, ORR plans to replace the term “unaccompanied alien child (UAC)” with “unaccompanied child (UC)” throughout the instruments in this collection. Note that the screenshots of UC Path instruments attached to this package do not reflect this change because it has not yet been developed in the system. However, the revision in terminology will be made before the system is launched. ORR has also removed the term “alien” from the title of this information collection and revised it to read “Release of Unaccompanied Children from ORR Custody.”
