Addition of Provision for the Registration and Fingerprinting of Nonimmigrants Designated by the Attorney General; Removal of the Requirement for the Registration and Fingerprinting of Certain Nonimmigrants Bearing Iraqi and Kuwaiti Travel Documents

Streszczenie

This rule adopts without change an interim rule published by the Immigration and Naturalization Service (Service) in the Federal Register on December 23, 1993, which added the provision for the registration and fingerprinting of certain nonimmigrants of specific countries designated by the Attorney General. The interim rule also removed the requirement for the registration and fingerprinting of certain nonimmigrants bearing Iraqi and Kuwaiti travel documents who applied for admission to the United States, which was promulgated in response to a specific political situation. This action will continue to afford the Attorney General with the flexibility to facilitate implementation of the fingerprinting requirement when future political situations arise which threaten the national security of the United States.
