{"abstract":"The Department of Homeland Security (DHS), U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) invites the general public and other Federal agencies to comment upon this proposed revision of a currently approved collection of information. In accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA) of 1995, the information collection notice is published in the Federal Register to obtain comments regarding the nature of the information collection, the categories of respondents, the estimated burden (i.e., the time, effort, and resources used by the respondents to respond), the estimated cost to the respondent, and the actual information collection instruments. USCIS is also soliciting comments regarding additional features proposed for incorporation into form G-28. The new features clarify USCIS notification practices relating to represented parties. Specifically, USCIS is revising the G-28 to provide that, for represented parties DHS will send all original notices and documents regarding any application or petition filed with DHS to the applicants and petitioners directly with a courtesy copy sent to the attorney of record or accredited representative. However, on the form the applicant or petitioner may instruct USCIS to (a) send any notice regarding an application or petition that he or she has filed with DHS to the business address of their attorney of record or accredited representative as listed in the form, or; (b) send any secure identity document, such as a Permanent Resident Card or Employment Authorization Document, that he or she is approved, for to the official business address of his or her attorney of record or accredited representative. The proposed new forms are available for review in the docket.","action":"60-Day notice.","agencies":[{"raw_name":"DEPARTMENT OF HOMELAND SECURITY","name":"Homeland Security Department","id":227,"url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/agencies/homeland-security-department","json_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/api/v1/agencies/227","parent_id":null,"slug":"homeland-security-department"},{"raw_name":"U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services","name":"U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services","id":499,"url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/agencies/u-s-citizenship-and-immigration-services","json_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/api/v1/agencies/499","parent_id":227,"slug":"u-s-citizenship-and-immigration-services"}],"body_html_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/full_text/html/2014/05/19/2014-11530.html","cfr_references":[],"citation":"79 FR 28757","comment_url":null,"comments_close_on":"2014-07-18","correction_of":null,"corrections":[],"dates":"Comments are encouraged and will be accepted for 60 days until July 18, 2014.","disposition_notes":null,"docket_ids":["OMB Control Number 1615-0105"],"dockets":[],"document_number":"2014-11530","effective_on":null,"end_page":28758,"executive_order_notes":null,"executive_order_number":null,"full_text_xml_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/full_text/xml/2014/05/19/2014-11530.xml","html_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2014/05/19/2014-11530/agency-information-collection-activities-notice-of-entry-of-appearance-as-attorney-or-accredited","images":{},"images_metadata":{},"json_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/api/v1/documents/2014-11530?publication_date=2014-05-19","mods_url":"https://www.govinfo.gov/metadata/granule/FR-2014-05-19/2014-11530/mods.xml","not_received_for_publication":null,"page_length":2,"page_views":{"count":201,"last_updated":"2026-10-24 06:15:04 -0400"},"pdf_url":"https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2014-05-19/pdf/2014-11530.pdf","presidential_document_number":null,"proclamation_number":null,"public_inspection_pdf_url":"https://public-inspection.federalregister.gov/2014-11530.pdf?1400244691","publication_date":"2014-05-19","raw_text_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/full_text/text/2014/05/19/2014-11530.txt","regulation_id_number_info":{},"regulation_id_numbers":[],"regulations_dot_gov_info":{"supporting_documents":[{"title":"G-28-010_REV_30-day FRN_CopyDeck_v.2.2.5","document_id":"USCIS-2008-0037-0302"},{"title":"G-28-010 60-Day Public Comment Matrix","document_id":"USCIS-2008-0037-0300"},{"title":"G-28-010_PRA_REV_CopyDeck_v.2.1.2_60-day FRN (2)","document_id":"USCIS-2008-0037-0133"},{"title":"G28-009 Instructions for Notice of Entry of Appearance as Attorney or Accredited Representative 9.21.2021","document_id":"USCIS-2008-0037-0115"},{"title":"Rep Onboarding Profile and G-28 Copy Deck","document_id":"USCIS-2008-0037-0109"},{"title":"Instructions for Form G-28, Notice of Entry of Appearance as Attorney or Accredited Representative","document_id":"USCIS-2008-0037-0102"},{"title":"G-28I, Table of Changes - Form 3.5.2018","document_id":"USCIS-2008-0037-0096"},{"title":"G-28I, Table of Changes - Instructions 3.5.2018","document_id":"USCIS-2008-0037-0094"},{"title":"G-28, Notice of Entry of Appearance as Attorney or Accredited Representative 3.5.2018","document_id":"USCIS-2008-0037-0093"},{"title":"G-28I, Notice of Entry of Appearance as Attorney In Matters Outside the Geographical Confines of the United States 11.24.2017","document_id":"USCIS-2008-0037-0083"}],"comments_url":"https://www.regulations.gov/docketBrowser?rpp=50&so=DESC&sb=postedDate&po=0&dct=PS&D=USCIS-2008-0037","supporting_documents_count":103,"docket_id":"USCIS-2008-0037","regulation_id_number":null,"title":"Agency Information Collection Activities; Revision of a Currently Approved Collection: Notice of Entry of Appearance as Attorney or Accredited Representative","checked_regulationsdotgov_at":"2014-07-20T05:00:37Z"},"regulations_dot_gov_url":null,"significant":null,"signing_date":null,"start_page":28757,"subtype":null,"title":"Agency Information Collection Activities: Notice of Entry of Appearance as Attorney or Accredited Representative; Notice of Entry of Appearance as Attorney In Matters Outside the Geographical Confines of the United States, Form G-28; G-28I; Revision of a Currently Approved Collection.","toc_doc":"Notice of Entry of Appearance as Attorney or Accredited Representative, etc.","toc_subject":"Agency Information Collection Activities; Proposals, Submissions, and Approvals:","topics":[],"type":"Notice","volume":79}
