SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The REAL 

ID Act of 2005 (the Act) prohibits 

Federal agencies from accepting Stateissued drivers’ licenses or identification 

cards for any official purpose—defined 

in the Act and regulations to include 

accessing federal facilities, boarding 

federally regulated commercial aircraft, 

and entering nuclear power plants— 

unless the license or card is issued by 

a State that meets the requirements set 

forth in the Act. The REAL ID 

regulations, which DHS issued in 

January 2008, establish the minimum 

standards that States must meet to 

comply with the Act. DHS has a 

separate collection of information 

related to DHS interaction with States, 

e.g., State certification (see OMB Control 

No. 1601–0005). By contrast to that 

collection of information, this collection 

of information relates to the States’ 

collection of information from driver’s 

license applicants. 

Initial Information and Documentation 

The Act and regulations also prescribe 

the documents and information an 

individual must present as proof of 

identity and lawful status when 

applying for a REAL ID compliant 

license or identification card. This 

includes information and 

documentation establishing a person’s 

identity, date of birth, social security 

number, residence address, and 

evidence of U.S. citizenship or lawful 

status in the United States. 

Additionally, states may permit an 

applicant to establish a name other than 

the name that appears on a source 

document but must require evidence of 

the name change through presentation 

of documents issued by a court, 

governmental body or other entity as 

determined by the state. The costs of 

these activities are one-time costs 

because they accrue as part of the initial 

issuance process only. 

Reissuance and Renewal 

With certain exceptions, the REAL ID 

regulations generally permit an 

applicant to renew or obtain a reissued 

replacement REAL ID license or 

identification card remotely and 

without presenting additional 

documentation or information. States 

may not, however, remotely renew or 

reissue a replacement license or 

identification card where there has been 

a material change in any personally 

identifiable information since the prior 

issuance. In such cases, an applicant 

must present documentation 

establishing the material change. The 

regulations also require applicants to 

renew their REAL ID licenses and 

identification cards in-person at least 

once every sixteen years. Additionally, 

holders of temporary or limited-term 

REAL ID driver’s licenses and 

identification cards must present 

evidence of continued lawful status 

when renewing their license or 

identification card. 

In addition to requiring applicants to 

present certain identity and lawful 

status documentation and information 

as described in paragraph 1 above, the 

REAL ID Act and regulations require 

states to verify and retain copies of that 

information. These requirements help 

states to ensure the authenticity of an 

applicant’s information and reduce 

opportunities for fraud in the 

application and document issuance 

process. The regulations specifically 

require states to verify identity and 

lawful status information and 

documentation presented by an 

applicant to ensure (1) the source 

document provided is genuine and has 

not been altered (‘‘document 

authentication’’), and (2) the identity 

data contained on the document is valid 

(‘‘data verification’’). States must verify 

documents and information provided by 

an applicant with the issuer of the 

document and use electronic validation 

systems as they become available for 

use. For example, to verify an 

applicant’s lawful status in the United 

States, the regulations require states to 

verify a document issued by the 

Department of Homeland Security 

through the use of the Systematic Alien 

Verification for Entitlements (SAVE) 

system or alternate method approved by 

DHS. Similarly, states must verify 

documents issued by the U.S. 

Department of State, including U.S. 

passports, with the Department of State, 

social security information with the 

Social Security Administration, and 

birth certificates using the Electronic 

Verification of Vital Events (EVVE) 

system or other electronic system when 

the records are available. The 

regulations also require state 

department of motor vehicle employees 

who are involved in the handling of an 

applicant’s source documents or who 

are engaged in the issuance of driver’s 

licenses and identification cards to 

undergo periodic fraudulent document 

recognition training and security 

awareness training. The Act and 

regulations also require states to retain 

copies of the application, declaration, 

and source documents, including 

documents establishing name changes 

for either seven years or ten years 

depending on whether the documents 


jspears on DSK121TN23PROD with NOTICES1
Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 77 / Thursday, April 21, 2022 / Notices 23879 

are retained electronically or in paper 

format. 

Applicants for REAL ID licenses and 

identification cards generally submit 

their documentation and information inperson at a state DMV office. During the 

application process the state will review 

and make copies of an applicant’s 

information, collect the completed 

application, take the applicant’s 

photograph, and obtain a declaration 

that the information presented is true 

and correct. Although this transaction 

generally occurs in-person, DHS has 

provided guidance authorizing states to 

allow applicants to pre-submit identity 

and lawful status source documents 

through a secure electronic process in 

advance of an in-person DMV visit at 

which time the applicant would 

physically present those same 

documents for authentication and 

verification by DMV personnel. States 

that utilize this process have indicated 

that it helps to ensure an applicant has 

the correct information and reduces 

customer wait times by allowing the 

state to electronically copy the 

information in advance of the visit. 

In December 2020, Congress enacted 

the REAL ID Modernization Act, which 

includes provisions that would allow 

states to accept applicant information 

through electronic transmission 

methods following the DHS issuance of 

regulations and state certification that 

they comply with those regulations. 

DHS is in the process of developing 

regulations to implement this provision, 

which when implemented by the state 

could help to reduce the burden’s 

associated with an in-person DMV visit 

to obtain a REAL ID compliant license 

or identification card. 

The information collection discussed 

in this analysis applies to applicant’s for 

REAL ID licenses and identification 

cards. Therefore, it is DHS’s belief that 

the information collection does not have 

a significant impact on a substantial 

number of small businesses. 

Without the presentation, verification, 

and retention of applicant identity and 

lawful status documentation and 

information, states would be unable to 

comply with REAL ID requirements. As 

a consequence, individuals would be 

unable to use their state-issued driver’s 

license or identification card for REAL 

ID official purposes. 

The Office of Management and Budget 

is particularly interested in comments 

which: 

1. Evaluate whether the proposed 

collection of information is necessary 

for the proper performance of the 

functions of the agency, including 

whether the information will have 

practical utility; 

2. Evaluate the accuracy of the 

agency’s estimate of the burden of the 

proposed collection of information, 

including the validity of the 

methodology and assumptions used; 

3. Enhance the quality, utility, and 

clarity of the information to be 

collected; and 

4. Minimize the burden of the 

collection of information on those who 

are to respond, including through the 

use of appropriate automated, 

electronic, mechanical, or other 

technological collection techniques or 

other forms of information technology, 

e.g., permitting electronic submissions 

of responses.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The 

Department of Homeland Security 

(DHS) Headquarters (HQ) Migrant 

Protection Protocols (MPP) program is a 

U.S. Government program, initiated in 

January 2019 pursuant to Section 

235(b)(2)(C) of the Immigration and 

Nationality Act (INA). Under MPP, the 

United States returns to Mexico certain 

citizens and nationals of countries in 

the Western Hemisphere other than 

Mexico while their U.S. removal 

proceedings are pending. 

On June 1, 2021, the Secretary of 

Homeland Security determined that 

MPP should be terminated and issued a 

memorandum to that effect. On August 

13, 2021, however, the U.S. District 

Court for the Northern District of Texas 

determined in Texas v. Biden that the 

June 1, 2021 memo was not issued in 

compliance with the Administrative 

Procedure Act and INA and ordered 

DHS to ‘‘enforce and implement MPP in 

good faith.’’ See Texas v. Biden, No. 

2:21–cv–067, 2021 WL 3603341 (N.D. 

Tex. Aug. 13, 2021). 

On October 29, 2021, after an 

extensive and comprehensive review, 

the Secretary of Homeland Security 

issued a new memorandum terminating 

MPP, which DHS will implement as 

soon as practicable after issuance of a 

final judicial decision to vacate the 

Texas injunction. Until that time, the 

Department continues to comply with 

the Texas injunction requiring goodfaith implementation and enforcement 

of MPP. To carry out the court order 

requiring good-faith implementation 

and enforcement of MPP, the 

Department is proposing a new data 

collection. To achieve efficiencies and 

ensure consistency with MPP guidance, 

DHS seeks to create a public-facing MPP 

Disenrollment Request website. 

All information entered by 

individuals into the MPP Disenrollment 

Request System will be used by DHS 

employees and staff to determine 

whether, consistent with DHS MPP 

guidance, an individual should be 

disenrolled from MPP. Decisions 

whether to enroll or disenroll 

individuals from MPP are at DHS’s 

discretion, and the disenrollment 

request process does not create any 

obligation or private right of action 

enforceable in administrative or judicial
