Abstract:
This request is to apply a simple change (83C) to the currently approved Individual Application for the information collection 1845-0163 to incorporate the instruction correction to the form. The form attached illustrates the changes we would like to make in the “Other” section of the Individual Application on pages 16 and 17. No other forms are affected by this correction. These edits are to make the "Other" section consistent with the questions in the other misrepresentation sections and are based on feedback received from advocacy groups during the 30 day notice and comment period. These changes were already made in six sections of the Individual Application but were overlooked in the corresponding text in the “Other” section when the forms were submitted during the full information clearance process which was approved June 30, 2023.
