Download as PDF 55016 Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 173 / Thursday, September 8, 2022 / Notices component layout for the motherboard manufactured in Taiwan determine the tablet’s functionality. The chipset enables the central processing unit to communicate with the other components of the tablet. You advise that the operations in China are ‘‘simple’’ and involve attaching all the parts together into the final tablet and adding a screen. Thus, consistent with our previous rulings and decisions above, we find that the last substantial transformation takes place in Taiwan where the chipset and the circuit and component layout for the motherboard are manufactured. After the final assembly in China, the tablet will undergo a firmware upload in the United States. The imported tablet already has the system requirements, which make it possible to install the firmware. The installation of the U.S.developed firmware in the United States does not transform the Taiwanmanufactured tablet into another product with a new name, character or use. The country of origin of the tablet remains the country where the last substantial transformation occurred, which is Taiwan. Therefore, the SCORE®7T tablets programmed with ATG’s U.S.developed firmware in the United States would be products of a foreign country or instrumentality designated pursuant to 19 U.S.C. 2511(b)(1). Holding khammond on DSKJM1Z7X2PROD with NOTICES Based on the facts and analysis set forth above, the country of origin of the instant SCORE®7T tablets will be Taiwan. Notice of this final determination will be given in the Federal Register, as required by 19 CFR 177.29. Any partyat-interest other than the party which requested this final determination may request, pursuant to 19 CFR 177.31, that CBP reexamine the matter anew and issue a new final determination. Pursuant to 19 CFR 177.30, any partyat-interest may, within 30 days of publication of the Federal Register Notice referenced above, seek judicial review of this final determination before the U.S. Court of International Trade. Sincerely, Alice A. Kipel, Executive Director, Regulations and Rulings Office of Trade.

ACTION: Notice. AGENCY: This notice announces that the Secretary of Homeland Security (Secretary) is suspending certain regulatory requirements for F–1 nonimmigrant students whose country of citizenship is Venezuela, regardless of country of birth (or individuals having no nationality who last habitually resided in Venezuela), and who are experiencing severe economic hardship as a direct result of the humanitarian crisis in Venezuela. The Secretary is taking action to provide relief to those Venezuelan students who were in lawful F–1 nonimmigrant student status on April 22, 2021, and are currently maintaining F–1 nonimmigrant student status, so the students may request employment authorization, work an increased number of hours while school is in session, and reduce their course load while continuing to maintain their F–1 nonimmigrant student status. The U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) will deem an F–1 nonimmigrant student who receives employment authorization by means of this notice to be engaged in a ‘‘full course of study’’ for the duration of the employment authorization, if the nonimmigrant student satisfies the minimum course load requirement described in this notice. DATES: This F–1 visa action is effective from September 10, 2022, through March 10, 2024.

SUMMARY: PO 00000 Frm 00064 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 55017 SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: What action is DHS taking under this notice? The Secretary is exercising the authority under 8 CFR 214.2(f)(9) to temporarily suspend the applicability of certain requirements governing oncampus and off-campus employment for F–1 nonimmigrant students whose country of citizenship is Venezuela regardless of country of birth (or individuals having no nationality who last habitually resided in Venezuela), who were lawfully present in the United States in F–1 nonimmigrant student status on April 22, 2021 and continue to be lawfully present in F–1 nonimmigrant student status, and who are experiencing severe economic hardship as a direct result of the humanitarian crisis in Venezuela. The original notice, which applied to F–1 nonimmigrant students who met certain criteria, including having been lawfully present in the United States in F–1 nonimmigrant status on April 22, 2021, was effective from April 22, 2021, until September 9, 2022. See 86 FR 21328 (Apr. 22, 2021). Effective with this publication, suspension of the employment limitations is available through March 10, 2024, for those who were in lawful F–1 nonimmigrant status as of April 22, 2021, and are currently maintaining F–1 nonimmigrant status. DHS will deem an F–1 nonimmigrant student granted employment authorization through this notice to be engaged in a ‘‘full course of study’’ for the duration of the employment authorization, if the student satisfies the minimum course load set forth in this notice.1 See 8 CFR 214.2(f)(6)(i)(F). Who is covered by this notice? This notice applies exclusively to F– 1 nonimmigrant students who meet all of the following conditions: 1 Because the suspension of requirements under this notice applies throughout an academic term during which the suspension is in effect, DHS considers an F–1 nonimmigrant student who engages in a reduced course load or employment (or both) after this notice is effective to be engaging in a ‘‘full course of study,’’ see 8 CFR 214.2(f)(6), and eligible for employment authorization, through the end of any academic term for which such student is matriculated as of March 10, 2024, provided the student satisfies the minimum course load requirements in this notice. DHS also considers students who engage in online coursework pursuant to U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID–19) guidance for nonimmigrant students to be in compliance with regulations while such guidance remains in effect. See ICE Guidance and Frequently Asked Questions on COVID–19, Nonimmigrant Students & SEVPCertified Schools: Frequently Asked Questions, https://www.ice.gov/coronavirus (last visited July 8, 2022).
