Proposed Project

    Statements in Support of Application of Waiver of Inadmissibility 
(0920-0006)--Extension--National Center for Preparedness, Detection, 
and Control of Infectious Diseases (NCPDCID), Centers for Disease 
Control and Prevention (CDC).

Background and Brief Description

    Section 212(a)(1) of the Immigration and Nationality Act states 
that aliens with specific health related conditions are ineligible for 
admission into the United States. The Attorney General may waive 
application of this inadmissibility on health-related grounds if an 
application for waiver is filed and approved by the consular office 
considering the application for visa. CDC uses this application 
primarily to collect information to establish and maintain records of 
waiver applicants in order to notify the U.S. Citizenship and 
Immigration Services when terms, conditions and controls imposed by 
waiver are not met. CDC is requesting approval from OMB to collect this 
data for another 3 years. There are no costs to respondents except 
their time to complete the application. The annualized burden for this 
data collection is 167 hours.
