Published Date: 6/3/2026
Notice
Summary
The Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) is asking for public feedback on how they collect opinions about national security and emergency messages. This helps make sure their communications are clear and useful without causing extra hassle. Comments are open until July 6, 2026, and no costs or big changes are expected.
Analyzed Economic Effects
3 provisions identified: 1 benefits, 1 costs, 1 mixed.
Large-Scale Feedback Collection for Emergency Communications
CISA will collect qualitative feedback from federal, state, local, tribal, territorial, and industry users about national security and emergency preparedness communications. The notice estimates up to 10,000,000 customer satisfaction/feedback survey respondents (30 minutes each), 1,899,000 comment-card respondents (10 minutes each), 100,000 self-assessment respondents (30 minutes each), and 1,000 small-panel participants (1 hour each).
Estimated Burden Hours and Dollar Costs
The agency reports total estimated burden of 5,368,133 hours for these collections and estimates total burden costs of $292,350,840 (capital/startup) and $68,076.83 (operating/maintaining).
Small Businesses May Be Surveyed; Burden Minimization Promised
Small businesses or other small entities may be asked to provide feedback under this clearance, and the Agency says it will minimize burden on them by sampling, asking for readily available information, and using short, easy-to-complete instruments.

2026-17390, Automated Commercial Environment (ACE) Electronic Export Manifest for Rail Cargo
Starting October 26, 2026, all rail cargo leaving the U.S. must have its export info sent electronically through the Automated Commercial Environment (ACE). This new rule helps Customs keep cargo safe and makes trade smoother for rail exporters. Rail companies and exporters should get ready because enforcement begins a year later, on October 26, 2027.
2026-17324, Fee for Certain H-1B Petitions
The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) proposes to establish a $103,265 fee, payable at the time of filing, for all H-1B cap-subject petitions, including those eligible for the advanced degree exemption, which would be imposed in addition to all other applicable fees or payments. This fee would serve as a dedicated revenue mechanism to help recover a portion of the federal government's costs of administering the lawful immigration system, including activities carried out by DHS, the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ), the U.S. Department of State (DOS), and the U.S. Department of Labor (DOL).
2026-16313, Mandatory Electronic Filing (e-Filing)
This interim final rule (IFR) amends U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) regulations to provide: USCIS may require mandatory electronic filing (e-filing) of certain benefit requests; the process USCIS will follow to require a benefit request to be e-filed; and how a waiver of the e-filing requirement for those individuals unable to file electronically may be requested. This rule is intended to increase digital intake and processing to move USCIS and requestors from a mostly paper process to an electronic process and further enhance the integrity of the immigration system and the security of the United States.
2026-14439, Establishing a Fixed Time Period of Admission and an Extension of Stay Procedure for Nonimmigrant Academic Students, Exchange Visitors, and Representatives of Foreign Information Media
Starting September 15, 2026, students, exchange visitors, and foreign media reps will get a fixed time to stay in the U.S. instead of an open-ended status. This change helps the government keep better track of who’s following the rules and makes extending stays clearer. It affects F, J, and I visa holders and could mean more careful planning and paperwork, but no new fees are mentioned.
2026-13392, EB-5 Reform and Integrity Act of 2022; Ensuring the Integrity of the EB-5 Program; Automatic Revocation of Petitions for Immigrant Classification
The EB-5 Reform and Integrity Act of 2022 shakes up the investor visa program by making sure only serious investors who create real jobs get green cards. It affects foreign investors and regional centers, adds new rules to stop fraud, and sets a deadline for public comments by August 31, 2026. This means more trust and transparency in the program, with changes rolling out soon and investments under closer watch.
2026-13137, Marine Casualty Reporting on the Outer Continental Shelf
Starting July 30, 2026, companies working on the Outer Continental Shelf must report marine accidents based on who’s involved, not just where they happen. The rule raises the damage cost that triggers a report from $25,000 to $75,000, saving businesses money and making rules clearer and fairer. This change cuts industry costs by over $10,000 in 10 years and aligns U.S. rules with international standards for offshore activities.
