SUMMARY:
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
sroberts on PROD1PC70 with RULES
Need for Correction
On December 17, 2008, U.S.
Citizenship and Immigration Services
(USCIS) published an interim rule at 73
FR 76505 amending its regulations
governing the types of acceptable
identity and employment authorization
documents and receipts that employees

Jkt 217001
may present to their employers for
completion of the Form I–9,
Employment Eligibility Verification.
The rule inadvertently included
extraneous language in two paragraphs
at 8 CFR 274a.2(b)(1)(vi)(B)(1) and (2).
These paragraphs describe a type of
receipt that can be presented by lawful
permanent residents to their employers
in lieu of the Form I–551, Permanent
Resident Card, for completion of the
Form I–9.
As explained in the preamble on page
76507, column 3, in the first sentence
under the paragraph heading, ‘‘Adding
references to Form I–94A,’’ (see also the
last sentence under the paragraph
heading, ‘‘C. Revising References to
Temporary I–551s’’), the only change
the rule was making to 8 CFR
274a.2(b)(1)(vi)(B) was to add references
to the Form I–94A next to each
reference to the Form I–94, ArrivalDeparture Record. In error, the
regulatory text amending 8 CFR
274a.2(b)(1)(vi)(B)(1) at 73 FR 76511
inadvertently included the extraneous
language, ‘‘with an unexpired foreign
passport’’ in the sentence, ‘‘Presents the
arrival portion of Form I–94 or Form I–
94A with an unexpired foreign passport
containing an unexpired ‘Temporary I–
551’ stamp and a photograph of the
individual, which is designated for
purposes of this section as a receipt for
Form I–551;’’.
In addition, the regulatory text
amending 8 CFR 274a.2(b)(1)(vi)(B)(2)
inadvertently included the extraneous
language, ‘‘or statement,’’ in the
sentence, ‘‘Presents the Form I–551 by
the expiration date of the ‘Temporary I–
551’ stamp or, if the stamp or statement
has no expiration date, within one year
from the issuance date of the arrival
portion of the Form I–94 or Form I–
94A;’’. Note that DHS places only
Temporary I–551 ‘‘stamps’’ and not
Temporary I–551 ‘‘statements’’ on
Forms I–94 when issuing temporary
evidence of lawful permanent resident
status using Forms I–94.
This document corrects these two
errors by removing the extraneous
language from the regulatory text.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Need for Correction
On December 17, 2008, U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services
(USCIS) published an interim rule at 73 FR 76505 amending its
regulations governing the types of acceptable identity and employment
authorization documents and receipts that employees may present to
their employers for completion of the Form I-9, Employment Eligibility
Verification.
The rule inadvertently included extraneous language in two
paragraphs at 8 CFR 274a.2(b)(1)(vi)(B)(1) and (2). These paragraphs
describe a type of receipt that can be presented by lawful permanent
residents to their employers in lieu of the Form I-551, Permanent
Resident Card, for completion of the Form I-9.
As explained in the preamble on page 76507, column 3, in the first
sentence under the paragraph heading, ``Adding references to Form I-
94A,'' (see also the last sentence under the paragraph heading, ``C.
Revising References to Temporary I-551s''), the only change the rule
was making to 8 CFR 274a.2(b)(1)(vi)(B) was to add references to the
Form I-94A next to each reference to the Form I-94, Arrival-Departure
Record. In error, the regulatory text amending 8 CFR
274a.2(b)(1)(vi)(B)(1) at 73 FR 76511 inadvertently included the
extraneous language, ``with an unexpired foreign passport'' in the
sentence, ``Presents the arrival portion of Form I-94 or Form I-94A
with an unexpired foreign passport containing an unexpired `Temporary
I-551' stamp and a photograph of the individual, which is designated
for purposes of this section as a receipt for Form I-551;''.
In addition, the regulatory text amending 8 CFR
274a.2(b)(1)(vi)(B)(2) inadvertently included the extraneous language,
``or statement,'' in the sentence, ``Presents the Form I-551 by the
expiration date of the `Temporary I-551' stamp or, if the stamp or
statement has no expiration date, within one year from the issuance
date of the arrival portion of the Form I-94 or Form I-94A;''. Note
that DHS places only Temporary I-551 ``stamps'' and not Temporary I-551
``statements'' on Forms I-94 when issuing temporary evidence of lawful
permanent resident status using Forms I-94.
This document corrects these two errors by removing the extraneous
language from the regulatory text.
