Each participant in each program must submit a separate

either INSPASS Program.
3. Where to Submit This Application. Applications may be
submitted in person or by mail to the U.S. port of entry
sponsoring the DCL for which you are applying, or at the port

required to produce your original evidence of eligibility at that
time. Approval for participation is valid for one year unless

be denied at the discretion of the District Director without
appeal. All applicants denied shall be so notified. Applications

be assessed an additional $42, also non refundable, for
each additional vehicle.

Service." A charge of $30.00 will be imposed if a check in
payment of a fee is not honored by the bank on which it is drawn.
At some port of entries, payment may be made by credit card.
8. Privacy Act Statement. The authority to collect this
information is contained in Title 8, United States Code.
Furnishing the information on this form is voluntary; however,
failure to provide all of the requested information may result in
the delay of a final decision or denial of your request. The
information collected will be used to make a determination on
your application. It may also be provided to other government
agencies (Federal, state, local and/or foreign). All applicants
are subject to a check of criminal information databases in
order to determine eligibility.
9. Penalties for False Statements in Applications. Severe
penalties are provided by law for knowingly and willfully
falsifying or concealing a material fact or using any false
document in the submission of this application. Also, a false
representation may result in the denial of this application and
any other application you may make for any benefit under the
immigration laws of the United States.

10. Random compliance checks. Periodic random checks will
be conducted to ensure compliance with the conditions of each
program.
11. Applicant acknowledges and agrees that should he/she
violate any condition(s) of this program(s), or any law or
regulation of any Federal inspection service, or is otherwise
determined to be inadmissible to the U.S., his/her participation
in this program may be revoked and he/she may be subject to
other applicable sanctions. Such sanctions may include, but are
not limited to, criminal prosecution, exclusion or deportation
proceedings, imposition of civil monetary penalties, and
seizure of merchandise and/or vehicles. Conditions by which
the applicant must abide include, but are not limited to, the
following.
A) Adherence to all Federal, state, and local laws regarding
the importation of alcohol and agricultural products;
possession and importation of controlled substances, and
all other laws and regulations under the jurisdiction of
any federal agency.
12. Reporting Burden. A person is not required to respond to a
collection of information unless it displays a currently valid OMB
control number. We try to create forms and instructions that are
accurate, can be easily understood, and which impose the least
possible burden on you to provide us with information. Often this
is difficult because some immigration laws are very complex.
Accordingly, the reporting burden for this collection of
information is computed as follows: 1) learning about the form,
and reading and understanding U.S. INS Publications 28 minutes;
2) completing the form, 8 minutes; 3) fingerprinting 30 minutes;
and 4) assembling and mailing the application, 4 minutes, for an
estimated average of 70 minutes per response. If you have
comments regarding the accuracy of this estimate, or suggestions
for making this form simpler, you can write to the Immigration and
Naturalization Service, HQPDI, 425 I Street, N.W; Room 4034,
Washington, DC 20536, OMB No. 1115-0174. Do not mail your
completed application to this address.
B) Adherence to all requirements of the Immigration and
Nationality Act, as amended, and all INS regulations,
regarding documentary requirements.
