or required to respond, as well as a brief
abstract: Primary: Employers,
employees, recruiters and referrers for a
fee (limited to agricultural associations,
agricultural employers, or farm labor

facilitate compliance with section 274A
of the Immigration and Nationality Act,

multiplying the number of respondents
(78,000,000) x frequency of response (1)
x hour per response .16 hours (10
minutes). The annual recordkeeping
burden is added to the total annual
reporting burden which is based on
20,000,000 recordkeepers at .05 hours
(3 minutes) per filing.
(6) An estimate of the total public
burden (in hours) associated with the
collection: 13,480,000 annual burden
hours.
