Overview of This Information Collection

    (1) Type of Information Collection: Extension of a currently 
approved information collection.
    (2) Title of the Form/Collection: Electronic Bonds Online (eBonds) 
Access; OMB Control No. 1653-0046.
    (3) Agency form number, if any, and the applicable component of the 
Department of Homeland Security sponsoring the collection: Forms I-

    (4) Affected public who will be asked or required to respond, as 
well as a brief abstract: Primary: Individual or Households, Business 
or other non-profit. The information taken in this collection is 
necessary for ICE to grant access to eBonds and to notify the public of 
the duties and responsibilities associated with accessing eBonds. The 
I-352SA and the I-352RA are the two instruments used to collect the 
information associated with this collection. The I-352SA is to be 
completed by a Surety that currently holds a Certificate of Authority 
to act as a Surety on Federal bonds and details the requirements for 
accessing eBonds as well as the documentation, in addition to the I-
352SA and I-352RA, which the Surety must submit prior to being granted 
access to eBonds. The I-352RA provides notification that eBonds is a 
Federal government computer system and as such users must abide by 
certain conduct guidelines to access eBonds and the consequences if 
such guidelines are not followed.
    (5) An estimate of the total number of respondents and the amount 
of time estimated for an average respondent to respond: 100 responses 
at 30 minutes (.50 hours) per response.
    (6) An estimate of the total public burden (in hours) associated 
with the collection: 50 annual burden hours.
    Requests for a copy of the proposed information collection 
instrument, with instructions; or inquiries for additional information 
should be directed to: John Ramsay, Program Manager, Records Management 
Branch, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, 500 12th Street SW.,
