USCIS uses the data collected on this form to determine eligibility for the requested nonimmigrant petition and/or requests to extend or change nonimmigrant status. An employer uses this form to petition USCIS for an alien to temporarily enter as a nonimmigrant. An employer also uses this form to request an extension of stay or change of status on behalf of the alien worker. The form serves the purpose of standardizing requests for nonimmigrant workers, and ensuring that basic information required for assessing eligibility is provided by U.S. employers while seeking that beneficiaries be classified under certain nonimmigrant employment categories. It also assists USCIS in compiling information required by Congress annually to assess effectiveness and utilization of certain nonimmigrant classifications.

There has been a decrease in the estimated total hour burden and estimated cost burden for this collection of information as a result of the decrease in the estimated number of responses for Form I-129. The H1-B pre-registration process will reduce the number of Form I-129s filed by prospective employers, as complete Form I-129 petitions will only be filed for beneficiaries selected during the H-1B pre-registration random selection process. No changes have been made to the form or instructions.
