Abstract of Proposed Collection

    MyTravelGov is an electronic account creation and validation 
portal. U.S. citizens who wish to submit applications for consular 
services online (electronic applications) instead of submitting paper 
applications must create a unique user account through MyTravelGov. The 
unique user account will safeguard the submission and storage of 
personally identifiable information necessary to process an online 
application. The information collected will also be used by servers to 
validate subsequent log-ons to the unique user account or attempts to 
reset the account password to ensure the security and integrity of 
accounts.

Methodology

    Information is collected when an individual logs on to the 
MyTravelGov web portal and elects to create a unique user account.

Kevin E. Bryant,
Deputy Director, Office of Directives Management, Department of State.
