(3) Enhance the quality, utility, and

Overview of This Information
Collection
(1) Type of Information Collection
Request: Revision of a Currently
Approved Collection.
(2) Title of the Form/Collection:
Application for Employment
Authorization for Abused
Nonimmigrant Spouse.
(3) Agency form number, if any, and
the applicable component of the DHS
sponsoring the collection: I–765V;
USCIS.
(4) Affected public who will be asked
or required to respond, as well as a brief
abstract: Primary: Individuals or
households. U.S. Citizenship and
Immigration Services (USCIS) will use
Form I–765V, Application for
Employment Authorization for Abused
Nonimmigrant Spouse, to collect the
information that is necessary to
determine if the applicant is eligible for
an initial EAD or renewal EAD as a
qualifying abused nonimmigrant
spouse. Aliens are required to possess
an EAD as evidence of work
authorization. To be authorized for
employment, an alien must be lawfully
admitted for permanent residence or
authorized to be so employed by the
INA or under regulations issued by
DHS. Pursuant to statutory or regulatory
authorization, certain classes of aliens
are authorized to be employed in the
United States without restrictions as to
location or type of employment as a
condition of their admission or
subsequent change to one of the
indicated classes. USCIS may determine
the validity period assigned to any
document issued evidencing an alien’s

authorization to work in the United
States. USCIS also collects biometric
information from EAD applicants to
verify the applicant’s identity, check or
update their background information,
and produce the EAD card.
USCIS is submitting this request in
order for qualifying abused
nonimmigrant spouses to seek safety
and financial stability from their abuser.
The Form I–765V, Application for
Employment Authorization for Abused
Nonimmigrant Spouse, permits battered
spouses of nonimmigrants admitted
under subparagraph (A), (E)(iii), (G), or
(H) of section 101(a)(15) of the Act to
apply for employment authorization
based on section 106 of the INA.
To be eligible for employment
authorization issued under INA section
106, credible evidence must be
submitted demonstrating that the
applicant:
1. Is married to a qualifying principal
nonimmigrant spouse, or was married to
a qualifying principal nonimmigrant
spouse and
a. The spouse died within two years
of filing the EAD application,
b. The spouse lost qualifying
nonimmigrant status due to an incident
of domestic violence, or
c. The marriage to the principal
spouse was terminated within the two
years prior to filing for the INA section
106 employment authorization, and
there is a connection between the
termination of the marriage and the
battery or extreme cruelty;
2. Was last admitted as a
nonimmigrant under INA section
101(a)(15)(A), (E)(iii), (G), or (H);
3. Was battered or has been subjected
to extreme cruelty, or whose child was
battered or subjected to extreme cruelty,
perpetrated by the principal
nonimmigrant spouse during the
marriage and after admission as a
nonimmigrant under INA section
101(a)(15)(A), (E)(iii), (G), or (H); and
4. Currently resides in the United
States.
Form I–765V will provide the
information needed to determine
eligibility for employment authorization
based on INA section 106. If the
applicant remarries prior to
adjudication of the application, he or
she is ineligible for initial issuance or
renewal of employment authorization
under INA section 106.
In addition, if an applicant for
employment authorization is filing
based on a claim that his or her child
was battered or subjected to extreme
cruelty, USCIS requires submission of
evidence establishing the applicant’s
parental relationship with the abused
child.
