(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

electronic, mechanical, or other

Overview of This Information
Collection
(1) Type of Information Collection:
Revision of a Currently Approved
Collection.
(2) Title of the Form/Collection:
Petition for Nonimmigrant Worker.
(3) Agency form number, if any, and
the applicable component of the DHS
sponsoring the collection: I–129; USCIS.
(4) Affected public who will be asked
or required to respond, as well as a brief
abstract: Primary: Business or other forprofit. USCIS uses the data collected on
this form to determine eligibility for the
requested nonimmigrant petition and/or
requests to extend or change
nonimmigrant status. An employer (or
agent, where applicable) uses this form
to petition USCIS for an alien to
temporarily enter as a nonimmigrant.
An employer (or agent, where
applicable) also uses this form to
request an extension of stay or change
of status on behalf of the alien worker.
The form serves the purpose of
standardizing requests for
nonimmigrant workers, and ensuring
that basic information required for
assessing eligibility is provided by the
petitioner while requesting that
beneficiaries be classified under certain
nonimmigrant employment categories. It
also assists USCIS in compiling
information required by Congress
annually to assess effectiveness and
utilization of certain nonimmigrant
classifications.

respondents and the amount of time
estimated for an average respondent to
respond: The estimated total number of
