Overview of This Information Collection

    Title: Canadian Border Boat Landing Permit.
    OMB Number: 1651-0108.
    Form Number: CBP Form I-68.
    Current Actions: This submission is being made to extend the 
expiration date with a decrease to the burden hours. There is no change

    Abstract: The Canadian Border Boat Landing Permit, U.S. Customs and 
Border Protection (CBP) Form I-68, generally allows select individuals 
entering the United States along the northern border by small \1\ 
pleasure boats to report their arrival and make entry without having to 
travel to a designated port of entry for an inspection by a CBP 
officer. The information collected on CBP Form I-68 allows eligible 
individuals to be inspected in person only once during the boating 
season, rather than each time they make an entry. United States 
citizens, Lawful Permanent Residents of the United States, Canadian 
citizens, and Landed Residents of Canada who are nationals of the Visa 
Waiver Program countries listed in 8 CFR 217.2(a) are eligible to apply 
for the permit.

    CBP has developed a smart phone application known as ROAM that will 
in certain circumstances allow travelers participating in the I-68 
program to report their arrival in the United States through the ROAM 
application, instead of by telephone. The ROAM app, implementing the I-
68 program, will allow CBP officers to remotely conduct traveler 
interviews with a phone's video chat capability, and replace other 
technologies used for remote inspections that are obsolete or 
inefficient.
    This information collection is provided for by 8 CFR 235.1(g) and 
Section 235 of Immigration and Nationality Act. CBP Form I-68 is 
accessible at: https://www.cbp.gov/newsroom/publications/forms?title_1=I-68.
