Changes You Will See on the Revised Form
We posted the draft form on April 9, 2015, for 60-day public comment and again on September 30, 2015, for 30-day public comment and received numerous comments. The changes we made:- Removed the barcode. The 2D barcode technology has been removed on the new version of the form.
- Streamlined the application process for the customer. The revised form saves you time if a certain part does not apply to you.
- For example, we added language on page one about your parents’ citizenship. Your answers will determine whether you complete Part 6, or continue directly to Part 7.
- Identified evidence. We added language to the form instructions to help you identify what evidence you need to submit with your form and bring to your interview.
