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. There is also a document called the Form G-845S that was developed for use by only the agencies that administered the benefits mandated by IRCA.

There has been an increase of 808,273 in the burden hours associated with this information collection. In previous submissions, USCIS would always report the number of respondents submitting the G-845, G-845S and the Supplement, but USCIS never reported the number of electronic queries conducted by the respondent prior to submitting the G-845, G-845S and Supplement for verification. USCIS previously submitted the screen shots of the Verification Information System for OMB approval along with the G-845, G-845S and Supplement but never accounted for the number of electronic queries. This submission corrects that oversight.
