or additional information by visiting the

www.regulations.gov, and will include
any personal information you provide.
Therefore, submitting this information
makes it public. You may wish to

provided in comments from public

Written comments and suggestions
from the public and affected agencies
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
agency’s 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
technological collection techniques or
other forms of information technology,
e.g., permitting electronic submission of
responses.
Overview of This Information
Collection
(1) Type of Information Collection:
Revision of a Currently Approved
Collection.
(2) Title of the Form/Collection:
Verification Request and Verification
Request Supplement.
(3) Agency form number, if any, and
the applicable component of the DHS
sponsoring the collection: G–845;
USCIS.
(4) Affected public who will be asked
or required to respond, as well as a brief
abstract: Primary: Federal Government;
State, local or Tribal Government. In the
verification process, a participating
agency validates an applicant’s
immigration status by inputting
identifying information into the
Verification Information System (VIS),
which executes immigration status
queries against a range of data sources.
If VIS returns an immigration status and
the benefit-issuing agency does not find
a material discrepancy with the
response and the documents provided
by the applicant, the verification
process is complete. Then, the agency
may use that immigration status
information in determining whether or
not to issue the benefit. In some cases,
agencies that do not access the
automated verification system may
query USCIS by filing Form G–845.
Although the Form G–845 does not
require it, if needed certain agencies
may also file the Form G–845
Supplement with the Form G–845,
along with copies of immigration
documents to receive additional
information necessary to make their
benefit determinations. These forms
were developed to facilitate
communication between all benefitgranting agencies and USCIS to ensure
that basic information required to assess
status verification requests is provided.
USCIS is making minor revisions to the
Form G–845 and is streamlining the
Form G–845 Supplement with
additional immigration statuses that are
commonly requested by agencies in
order to make their benefit
determinations.

number of respondents for the
information collection G–845

hour burden per response is 0.083 hour.

collection is 1,653,110 hours.
