30-Day Notice.

# SUMMARY:

                        The Department of Homeland Security (DHS), U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) will be submitting the following information collection request to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for review and clearance in accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995. The information collection notice was previously published in the                         **Federal Register**                         on October 22, 2014, at 79 FR 63157, allowing for a 60-day public comment period for proposed revisions to the information collection. USCIS is, however, postponing implementation of any revisions to this information collection (projected until later in 2015 to early 2016), and is therefore requesting to extend the currently approved edition of this information collection without change at this time. USCIS received five comment submissions from four commenters on the proposed revisions to this information. USCIS acknowledges receipt of the comments and will be addressing the public comments received in response to the 60-day revision notice published on October 22, 2014, when it publishes a new 60-day notice with the proposed revisions.
