The Department of Justice,

Immigration and Naturalization Service

60-day period regarding an initial draft

revision of this collection (Form N–400).

In order to encourage more comments,

the INS published a second Federal

revised form and soliciting public

comments for an additional 60 days.

During the two comment periods a total

proposed revisions to the Form N–400.

The comments were reviewed and

reconciled by the responsible program

published in the Federal Register for

information purposes only, incorporates

the additional suggestions and changes

recommended by interested parties.

The public is reminded that the

current Form N–400 dated January 15,

1999, must be used until OMB approves

the revision of this form and INS

announces the implementation date for

use of the revised Form N–400.

The purpose of this notice is to allow

an additional 60 days for public

comments on the proposed revised form

to ensure compliance with the
