Comment Submitted by National Asian Pacific American Women's Forum

Summary: The National Asian Pacific American Women’s Forum (NAPAWF) opposes the proposed revisions to Form AR-11, arguing that the new questions regarding employment, education, and public benefits exceed the form's statutory purpose. They contend that these changes impose unnecessary burdens, create a chilling effect on compliance due to surveillance concerns, and could disproportionately harm AANHPI families by discouraging them from accessing essential services.
