III. FEE ADJUSTMENTS
The fee adjustments, as adopted in this rule, are shown in Exhibit 1.
Regulatory Flexibility Act
The Attorney General, in accordance with the Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 605(b)), has reviewed this regulation and by approving it certifies that this rule will not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities. This rule adjusts the current Examinations Fee schedule. Its financial impact on users of the services is small. In most cases, the fee increase is $5.
Executive Order 12866
This rule is considered by the Department of Justice, Immigration and Naturalization Service, to be a "significant regulatory action" under Executive Order 12866, Sec. 3(f), Regulatory Planning and Review, because approximately 4 million people per annum will be assessed a user fee to recover the costs of providing adjudication and naturalization services.
Executive Order 12612
The regulation will not have substantial direct effects on the States, on the relationship between the National Government and the States, or on the distribution of power and responsibilities among the various levels of government. Therefore, in accordance with Executive Order 12612, it is determined that this rule does not have sufficient federalism implications to warrant the preparation of a Federalism Assessment.
Executive Order 12606
The Attorney General certifies that she has assessed this rule in light of the criteria in Executive Order 12606 and has determined that it will not have a significant negative impact on family well-being.
The information collection requirements contained in this rule have been cleared by the Office of Management and Budget under the provisions of the Paperwork Reduction Act. Clearance numbers for these collections are contained in 8 CFR 299.5, Display of Control Numbers.
List of Subjects in 8 CFR Part 103
Administrative practice and procedure, Authority delegations (Government agencies), Fees, Forms, Freedom of information, Privacy, Reporting and recordkeeping requirements, Surety bonds.
Accordingly, part 103 of chapter I of title 8 of the Code of Federal Regulations is amended as follows:
