This ICR
seeks OMB approval under the PRA for
revisions to the Application for Alien
Employment Certification information
collection that helps the DOL to meet its
statutory responsibilities for program
administration, management, and
oversight under the Immigration and
Naturalization Act (INA). INA section
212(a)(5)(A)(iii) deals specifically with
professional athletes coming to the
U.S.A. on a permanent basis as

immigrants, and Form ETA–750, part A
is used to collect information that
permits the DOL to meet Federal
responsibilities for such entry. Form
ETA–750, part B provides detailed
information about an alien’s education
and work history and is used by the
DOL to collect information about the
professional athlete on whose behalf an
application for permanent labor
certification is filed. The Department of
Homeland Security also uses part B for
foreign workers applying for the
National Interest Waiver of the job offer
requirement under INA section
203(b)(2)(B)(i). This use is required
under is also required 8 CFR
204.5(k)(4)(ii).
This information collection has been
classified as a revision, because Form
ETA–9142B is now used to obtain
information needed to issue an H–2B
visa to a professional athlete seeking
temporary non-immigrant admission
into the U.S.A. The DOL has previously
used Form ETA–750 part A to collect
information for labor certification for
athletes seeking either temporary or
permanent admission. The DOL obtains
PRA authority for Form ETA–9142B
under Control Number 1205–0509, and
this ICR will merely conclude the
transfer of the burden from one Control
Number to another.
This information collection is subject
to the PRA. A Federal agency generally
cannot conduct or sponsor a collection
of information, and the public is
generally not required to respond to an
information collection, unless it is
approved by the OMB under the PRA
and displays a currently valid OMB
Control Number. In addition,
notwithstanding any other provisions of
law, no person shall generally be subject
to penalty for failing to comply with a
collection of information that does not
display a valid Control Number. See 5
CFR 1320.5(a) and 1320.6. The DOL
obtains OMB approval for this
information collection under Control
Number 1205–0015. The current
approval is scheduled to expire on April
30, 2014; however, the DOL notes that
existing information collection
requirements submitted to the OMB
receive a month-to-month extension
while they undergo review. For
additional substantive information
about this ICR, see the related notice
published in the Federal Register on
January 3, 2014 (79 FR 407).
Interested parties are encouraged to
send comments to the OMB, Office of
Information and Regulatory Affairs at

consideration, comments should
mention OMB Control Number 1205–

interested in comments that:
• 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;
• Evaluate the accuracy of the
agency’s estimate of the burden of the
proposed collection of information,
including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used;
• Enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be
collected; and
• 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
technological collection techniques or
other forms of information technology,
e.g., permitting electronic submission of
responses.
