Burden Increase Due to:

Burden decreases because of Program Change due to Agency Discretion: No

Burden Reduction Due to:

Short Statement: The annual burden for these information collections decreased. This change is due to new regulations by the Department for the permanent labor certification program, which now uses ETA Form 9089 (see OMB 1205-0451). The ETA Form 750 parts A and B are used by the temporary programs and certifications for professional athletes at the Department of Labor and the National Interest Waiver program at USCIS. The burden for the programs that use the forms has been accounted for above and the decreased burden due to the permanent labor certification program has been shifted to the information collection under that control number. Finally, the cost burden for filing fees, $1,318,838, was omitted inadvertantly from the previous submission.
