Proposed Project

    1. Statement in Support of Application for Waiver of 
Inadmissibility--(0920-0006)--Extension--National Center for Infectious 
Disease Control and Prevention (NCID)--Section 212(a)(1) of the 
Immigration and Nationality Act states that aliens with specific 
health-related conditions are ineligible to receive visas and 
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 a visa. The Division of 
Quarantine, NCID uses this application primarily to collect information 
to establish and maintain records of waiver applicants in order to 
notify the Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS) when terms, 
conditions, and controls imposed by waiver are not met. We are 
requesting the extension of this data collection for three years. There 
is no cost to the respondents.
