Federal Register / Vol. 62, No. 160 / Tuesday, August 19, 1997 / Notices 44147

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

What Will Happen on September 1,

1997?

On September 1, 1997, the Service

will begin using the Integrated Card

Production System (ICPS) at the INS

service centers to produce the new

Permanent Resident Card, known as the

Alien Registration Receipt Card (ARC).

The Service will stop producing the

ARCs at the Immigration Card Facility

on September 30, 1997.

What Are the Benefits of Using ICPS

Technology at the INS Service Centers?

Using ICPS technology at the INS

service centers will allow the Service to:

(1) Mass produce the ARCs at a faster

rate;

(2) Produce a more secure credit card

type identity card by using the latest

security features available (i.e.,

biometrics);

(3) Eliminate the extra step of sending

the Application for Alien Registration

Receipt Card, Form I–90, from each of

the service centers to the Immigration

Card Facility;

(4) Reduce the possibility of all of the

ICPS machines being disabled at the

same time; and

(5) Enhance its ability to be more

responsive to inquiries from applicants,

their representatives, and benefitgranting agencies.

Will the ARC Produced by the ICPS

Look Different Than the Current ARC

and, if so, Will Employers and Public

Agencies be Informed of This Change?

The ARC will have a different

appearance than the current ARC. INS

will inform employers and public

agencies of the change by initiating a

public information campaign in August

1997.

Will There Be a Change in the Filing

Procedures to Apply for a New ARC?

No. You should continue to follow the

instructions on the Form I–90,

Application to replace Alien

Registration Receipt Card, when filing

for renewal or replacement of an ARC.

Will My Current ARC Remain Valid?

Yes. New ARCs will be issued using

ICPS technology, but the validity of

current Form I–551 ARCs is unaffected

by this change. They will remain valid

until the expiration date on the card.

How Will My ARC be Delivered?

The cards will continue to be mailed

and delivered by the U.S. Postal Service.

Dated: August 11, 1997.

Commissioner, Immigration and

Naturalization Service.
