Citizenship and Immigration 

Services—010 Asylum Information and 

Pre-Screening System of Records 

AGENCY: Privacy Office; DHS. 

ACTION: Notice of Privacy Act systems of 

records. 

SUMMARY: In accordance with the 

Privacy Act of 1974, the Department of 

Homeland Security proposes to add a 

new system of records to the 

Department of Homeland Security’s 

inventory, entitled Unites States 

Citizenship and Immigration Services010 Asylum Information and PreScreening System of Records. This new 

system of records is composed of two 

existing legacy IT systems: The 

Refugees, Asylum, and Parole System 

and the Asylum Pre-Screening System. 

Refugees, Asylum, and Parole System 

and Asylum Pre-Screening System have 

been in operation prior to the 

publication of this system of records 

notice as both systems were deemed to 

contain active records for only nonUnited States citizens and non-legal 

permanent residents. Refugees, Asylum, 

and Parole System and Asylum PreScreening System are used to capture 

information pertaining to asylum 

applications, credible fear and 

reasonable fear screening processes, and 

applications for benefits provided by 

Section 203 of the Nicaraguan 

Adjustment and Central American 

Relief Act. This newly established 

system will be included in the 

Department of Homeland Security’s 

inventory of record systems. 

DATES: Submit comments on or before 

February 4, 2010. This new system will 

be effective February 4, 2010. 

ADDRESSES: You may submit comments, 

identified by Docket Number DHS– 

2009–0123, by one of the following 

methods:

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Background 

As set forth in section 451(b) of the 

Homeland Security Act of 2002, 

Congress charged United States 

Citizenship and Immigration Services 

(USCIS) with the administration of the 

asylum program, which provides 

protection to qualified individuals in 

the United States who have suffered 

past persecution or have a well-founded 

fear of future persecution in their 

country of origin as outlined under 8 

CFR part 208. USCIS is also responsible 

for the adjudication of the benefit 

program established by section 203 of 

the Nicaraguan Adjustment and Central 

American Relief Act (NACARA 203), in 


srobinson on DSKHWCL6B1PROD with PROPOSALS
410 Federal Register / Vol. 75, No. 2 / Tuesday, January 5, 2010 / Notices 

accordance with 8 CFR part 241, and the 

maintenance and administration of the 

credible fear and reasonable fear 

screening processes, in accordance with 

8 CFR 208.30 and 208.31. 

In order to carry out its statutory 

obligations in administering these 

benefit programs, USCIS has established 

the Asylum Information and PreScreening System of Records to 

facilitate every aspect of intake, 

adjudication, and review of the 

specified programs. 

The Asylum Information and PreScreening System tracks case status and 

facilitate the scheduling of 

appointments and interviews as well as 

to issue notices at several stages of the 

adjudication process and to generate 

decision documents. This system also 

initiates, facilitates and tracks security 

and background check screening, and 

prevents the approval of any benefit 

prior to the review and completion of all 

security checks. Finally, the system 

provides a fully developed and flexible 

means for analyzing and managing 

program workflows and provides the 

Asylum Program with statistical reports 

to assist with oversight of production 

and processing goals. 

The Asylum Information and PreScreening System is composed of two IT 

systems: Refugees, Asylum and Parole 

System (RAPS) and Asylum PreScreening System (APSS). RAPS is a 

comprehensive case management tool 

that enables USCIS to handle and 

process applications for asylum 

pursuant to section 208 of the 

Immigration and Nationality Act (Act) 

and applications for adjustment 

pursuant to section 203 of NACARA. 

DHS offices worldwide can access RAPS 

as a resource of current and historic 

immigration status information on more 

than one million applicants. DHS 

officials can use RAPS to verify the 

status of asylum applicants, asylees, and 

their dependents to assist with the 

verification of an individual’s 

immigration history in the course of a 

review of visa petitions and other 

benefit applications as well. 

APSS is a program-focused case 

management system that supports 

USCIS in the screening of individuals in 

the expedited removal process and of 

individuals subject to reinstatement of a 

final order of removal or an 

administrative removal order based on a 

conviction of an aggravated felony to 

determine whether they have credible 

fear or reasonable fear, thus providing 

the individual with an opportunity for 

a hearing before an immigration judge. 

Case tracking, application processing, 

and workflow management are carried 

out for all credible fear and reasonable 

fear screenings using APSS. 

II. Privacy Act 

The Privacy Act embodies fair 

information principles in a statutory 

framework governing the means by 

which the United States Government 

collects, maintains, uses and 

disseminates personally identifiable 

information. 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 United States 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. Individuals may request access 

to their own records that are maintained 

in a system of records in the possession 

or under the control of DHS by 

complying with DHS Privacy Act 

regulations, 6 CFR part 5. 

The Privacy Act requires each agency 

to publish in the Federal Register a 

description denoting the type and 

character of each system of records that 

the agency maintains, and the routine 

uses that are contained in each system 

in order to make agency record keeping 

practices transparent, to notify 

individuals regarding the uses to which 

personally identifiable information is 

put, and to assist the individual to more 

easily find such files within the agency. 

Below is a description of DHS/USCIS– 

010 system of records. 

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

DHS has provided a report of these new 

systems of records to the Office of 

Management and Budget and to the 

Congress.

Records 

AGENCY: Privacy Office, DHS. 

ACTION: Modification to an existing 

system of records. 

SUMMARY: The Department of Homeland 

Security U.S. Immigration and Customs 

Enforcement is modifying an existing 

system of records titled Student and 

Exchange Visitor Information System 

(Mar. 22, 2005), to reflect proposed 

changes in the personal information that 

will be collected and maintained on 

individuals. In conjunction with its 

development and launch of the next 

generation Student and Exchange 

Visitor Information System application, 

called Student and Exchange Visitor 

Information System II, U.S. Immigration 

and Customs Enforcement is modifying 

the Student and Exchange Visitor 

Information System system of records 

notice to propose the collection of 

additional information on students, 

exchange visitors, and their dependents 

who are in the U.S. on F, M, or J classes 

of admission (F/M/J nonimmigrants), 

and officials of approved schools for 

and designated sponsors of F/M/J 

nonimmigrants. Like its predecessor, 

Student and Exchange Visitor 

Information System II is an information 

system that tracks and monitors F/M/J 

nonimmigrants throughout the duration
