SUMMARY:
The Department of Homeland
Security, U.S. Citizenship and
Immigration Services (USCIS) has
submitted the following information
collection request utilizing emergency
review and clearance in accordance
with section 1320.13(a)(1)(ii) and
(1)(2)(iii) of the Paperwork Reduction
Act of 1995. The USCIS has determined
that it cannot reasonably comply with
the normal clearance procedures under
this part because normal clearance
procedures are reasonably likely to
prevent or disrupt the collection of
information. Emergency review and
approval of this information collection
will ensure that the collection may
continue.
USCIS is requesting emergency
clearance of the December 10, 2001
version of Form I–129, Petition for
Nonimmigrant Worker until April 30,
2005. While USCIS has received OMB
approval of the changes to the
information collection required by the
OAA, many members of the public
PO 00000
Frm 00076
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
have, in anticipation of the USCIS
allocation, already prepared petitions
for these new visas using the preamended Form I–129. In order to
accommodate this segment of the
public, USCIS seeks approval of the
prior version of the Form I–129 to run
concurrent with the new amended
version until April 30, 2005. After that
date approval of the old I–129 will
expire and the new version of Form I–
129 will be the only version approved
for use.
USCIS is implementing the OAA and
allocating the additional H–1B visas
through rulemaking in the Federal
Register. While that rulemaking will
contain detailed filing instructions to
the public, USCIS is aware that some
members of the public may only see the
form itself and not be aware of the
rulemaking. To address this possibility,
USCIS will post the information on the
form download page on its Web site.
This will ensure that no one will receive
this form without instruction on the
proper filing method.
All comments and/or questions
pertaining to this pending request for
emergency approval MUST be directed
to OMB, Office of Information and
Regulatory Affairs, 725–17th Street,
NW., Suite 10235, Washington, DC
20503; Attention: Department of
Homeland Security Desk Officer.
Comments regarding the emergency
submission of this information
collection may also be submitted via
facsimile to (202) 395–6974.
During this review, USCIS invites
written comments and suggestions from
the public and affected agencies
concerning this information collection.
Comments are encouraged and will be
accepted until April 30, 2005. Written
comments and suggestions from the
public and affected agencies concerning
the proposed collection of information
should address one or more of the
following four points:
(1) Evaluate whether the proposed
collection of information is necessary
for the proper performance of the
functions of the agency, including
whether the information will have
practical utility;
(2) Evaluate the accuracy of the
agencies estimate of the burden of the
proposed collection of information,
including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used;
(3) Enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be
collected; and
(4) Minimize the burden of the
collection of information on those who
are to respond, including through the
use of appropriate automated,
electronic, mechanical, or other
