Abstract of Proposed Collection
The information requested will be used to support entry of the name
of a minor (an unmarried, unemancipated person under 18 years of age)
into the Children's Passport Issuance Alert Program (CPIAP). CPIAP
provides a mechanism for parents or other persons with legal custody of
a minor to obtain information regarding whether the Department has
received a passport application for the minor. This program was
developed as a means to prevent international parental child abduction
and to help prevent other travel of a minor without the consent of a
parent or legal guardian. If a minor's name and other identifying
information has been entered into the CPIAP, when the Department
receives an application for a new, replacement, or renewed passport for
the minor, the application may be placed on hold for up to 90 days and
the Office of Children's Issues may attempt to notify the requestor of
receipt of the application. Form DS-3077 will be primarily submitted by
a parent or legal guardian of a minor. This collection is authorized by
22 CFR 51.28, which is the regulation that implements the statutory
two-parent consent requirement and prescribes the bases for an
exception to the requirement.
Methodology
The completed Form DS-3077 can be filled out online and printed or
completed by hand. The form must be manually signed and submitted to
the Office of Children's Issues by email, fax or mail with supporting
documentation.
Michelle Bernier-Toth,
Managing Director, Bureau of Consular Affairs, Department of State.
