and reissue a current Department of 

Homeland Security system of records 

titled, ‘‘Department of Homeland 

Security/United States Citizenship and 

Immigration Services—008 Refugee 

Access Verification Unit System of 

Records.’’ This system of records allows 

the Department of Homeland Security/ 

U.S. Citizenship and Immigration 

Services to collect information to verify 

claimed relationships between anchor 

relatives in the United States and their 

overseas family members seeking access 

to the U.S. Refugee Admissions Program 

under the Priority 3 Family 

Reunification Program. Eligible anchor 

relatives who were admitted to the 

United States as refugees or granted 

asylum in the United states may file an

overseas family members (spouses, 

unmarried children under age 21, and/ 

or parents) to seek access to the U.S. 

Refugee Admission Program for their 

family members under Priority 3. USCIS 

is updating this system of records to 

include: (1) An updated system 

location; (2) updated categories of 

records; (3) updated routine uses; (4) a 

proposed retention schedule; (5) 

updated data elements used to retrieve 

records; and (6) updated sources of 

records. Additionally, this notice

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Background 

In accordance with the Privacy Act of 

1974, 5 U.S.C. 552a, the Department of 

Homeland Security (DHS) U.S. 

Citizenship and Immigration Services 

(USCIS) proposes to update and reissue 

a current DHS system of records titled, 

‘‘DHS/USCIS—008 Refugee Access 

Verification Unit System of Records’’ 

(last published December 19, 2008, 73 

FR 77795). This system of records notice 

(SORN) includes an updated system 

location, clarified categories of records, 

an updated retention schedule, and 

additional sources of records. 

USCIS and the Department of State 

(DOS) Bureau of Population, Refugees, 

and Migration (PRM) work 

cooperatively to administer the overseas 

component of the U.S. Refugee 

Admissions Program (USRAP). The 

mission of the USRAP is to resettle 

eligible refugees in the United States. 

DOS PRM has overall management 

responsibility for the USRAP and leads 

in proposing admissions ceilings and 

defining processing priorities, under 

which individuals may obtain access to 

the USRAP. The USCIS Refugee, 

Asylum, and International Operations 

Directorate (RAIO), Refugee Affairs 

Division (RAD) is responsible for 

interviewing refugee applicants and 

adjudicating applications for refugee 

status. 

Two separate IT systems maintain the 

information necessary to process 


sroberts on DSK5SPTVN1PROD with NOTICES
70314 Federal Register / Vol. 78, No. 227 / Monday, November 25, 2013 / Notices 

applications for refugee resettlement 

under the Priority 3 Family 

Reunification Program (P–3): (1) The 

DOS Worldwide Refugee Admissions 

Processing System (WRAPS) and (2) The 

Refugee Access Verification Unit 

(RAVU) database. WRAPS maintains 

information related to all individuals 

referred to the USRAP for resettlement. 

USCIS has read-only access to WRAPS. 

RAVU officers conduct preliminary 

paper reviews of all Affidavits of 

Relationship (AOR) (Form DS–7656) 

filed for P–3 cases prior to interview by 

a USCIS officer overseas. 

All AORs are subject to RAVU officer 

review. Only those family members on 

AORs cleared by USCIS proceed to a 

refugee interview with a USCIS officer 

overseas. To support this function, 

USCIS developed the RAVU database 

using the existing SharePoint Enterprise 

Collaboration Network (ECN) to track 

and manage the review of AORs, as well 

as generate reports, forms, and letters. 

ECN is a virtual work environment that 

allows users to collaborate, share 

information, and enhance productivity. 

RAVU allows users to enter data into a 

site through manual typing and 

attaching documents in a virtual space. 

Data from AORs and corresponding 

documents from the A-file are uploaded 

from individual computers to a secured 

centralized site in ECN. 

USCIS is republishing this SORN to 

provide public notice of the following. 

The location of the system has been 

updated to note that RAVU records are 

only electronically maintained. The 

categories of records have been updated 

to clarify that DNA results and other 

information may be collected on anchor 

relatives, qualifying family members, 

derivatives, and Type C add-on 

relatives. DHS has updated Routine Use 

H to clarify that records will be shared 

with DOS and ‘‘their contractors, agents, 

grantees, experts, consultants, or others 

performing or working on a contract, 

service, grant, cooperative agreement, or 

other assignment for DOS, when 

necessary to accomplish an agency 

function related to this system of 

records.’’ The retention and disposal 

section has been updated to reflect a 

proposed retention schedule that would 

reduce the retention of master file 

records from 20 years to 15 years. 

Retrievability has been updated to note 

that records may be retrieved by the 

anchor relative’s A-Number or the PreCase ID assigned to the AOR. Sources of 

records have been updated to include 

A-files and other DHS systems. 

Additionally, this notice includes nonsubstantive changes to simplify the 

formatting and text of the previously 

published notice. 

Information contained in DHS/

USCIS—008 Refugee Access 

Verification Unit is afforded the 

confidentiality protections contained in 

8 CFR 208.6, which strictly limits the 

disclosure of information to third 

parties. 8 CFR 208.6 specifically covers 

the confidentiality of asylum applicants 

who are in the United States. By DHS 

policy, the confidentiality provisions for 

asylum seekers and asylees have been 

extended to refugee applicants. 

Information may not be disclosed 

without the written consent of the 

applicant, except as permitted by 8 CFR 

208.6 or at the discretion of the 

Secretary of Homeland Security or the 

Attorney General of the United States. 

This updated system will continue to be 

included in DHS’ inventory of record 

systems. 

II. Privacy Act 

The Privacy Act embodies fair 

information practice principles in a 

statutory framework governing the 

means by which federal government 

agencies collect, maintain, use, and 

disseminate individuals’ records. The 

Privacy Act applies to information that 

is maintained in a ‘‘system of records.’’ 

A ‘‘system of records’’ is a group of any 

records under the control of an agency 

for which information is retrieved by 

the name of an individual or by some 

identifying number, symbol, or other 

identifying particular assigned to the 

individual. In the Privacy Act, an 

individual is defined to encompass U.S. 

citizens and lawful permanent 

residents. As a matter of policy, DHS 

extends administrative Privacy Act 

protections to all individuals where 

systems of records maintain information 

on U.S. citizens, lawful permanent 

residents, and visitors. 

Below is the description of the DHS/ 

USCIS—008 Refugee Access 

Verification Unit System of Records. 

In accordance with 5 U.S.C. 552a(r), 

DHS has provided a report of this 

system of records to the Office of 

Management and Budget and to 

Congress.

ROUTINE USES OF RECORDS MAINTAINED IN THE

SYSTEM, INCLUDING CATEGORIES OF USERS AND

THE PURPOSES OF SUCH USES: 

In addition to those disclosures 

generally permitted under 5 U.S.C. 

552a(b) of the Privacy Act, all or a 

portion of the records or information 

contained in this system may be 

disclosed outside DHS as a routine use 

pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 552a(b)(3) as 

follows: Note: Even when a valid 

routine use permits disclosure of 

information from this system of records 

to a third party, in some cases such 

disclosure may not be permissible 

because of confidentiality laws and 

policies that limit the sharing of 

information regarding individuals 

applying for certain immigration 

benefits. Information in this system of 

records contains information relating to 

persons who have pending or approved 

applications for asylum or refugee status 

and should not be disclosed pursuant to 

a routine use unless disclosure is 

otherwise permissible under the 

confidentiality statutes, regulations, or 

policies applicable to that information. 

These confidentiality provisions do not 

prevent DHS from disclosing 

information to the U.S. Department of 

Justice (DOJ) and U.S. Attorneys’ Offices 

as part of an ongoing criminal or civil 

investigation. 

A. To the Department of Justice (DOJ), 

including U.S. Attorney Offices, or other

in such litigation: 

1. DHS or any component thereof; 

2. Any employee or former employee 

of DHS in his/her official capacity;

of the suspected or confirmed 

compromise, there is a risk of identity 

theft or fraud, harm to economic or 

property interests, harm to an 

individual, or harm to the security or 

integrity of this system or other systems 

or programs (whether maintained by 

DHS or another agency or entity) that 

rely upon the compromised 

information; and 

3. The disclosure made to such 

agencies, entities, and persons is

compromise and prevent, minimize, or 

remedy such harm as limited by 8 CFR 

208.6. 

F. To contractors and their agents, 

grantees, experts, consultants, and 

others performing or working on a
