proposed collection of information,
including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used;
(3) Enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be
collected; and
(4) Minimize the burden of the
collection of information on those who
are to respond, including through the
use of appropriate automated,
electronic, mechanical, or other
technological collection techniques or
other forms of information technology,
e.g., permitting electronic submission of

Overview of This Information
Collection
(1) Type of Information Collection:
Extension, With Change, of a Currently
Approved Collection.
(2) Title of the Form/Collection:
Student and Exchange Visitor
Information System (SEVIS).
(3) Agency form number, if any, and
the applicable component of the

Enforcement.
(4) Affected public who will be asked
or required to respond, as well as a brief
abstract: Primary Non-profit institutions
and individuals or households. SEVIS is
an internet-based data entry, collection,
and reporting system. It collects
information on SEVP-certified school
via the Form I–17, ‘‘Petition for
Approval of School for Attendance by
Nonimmigrant Student,’’ and collects
information on the F and M
nonimmigrant students that the SEVPcertified schools admit into their
programs of study via the Forms I–20s:
‘‘Certificate of Eligibility for
Nonimmigrant (F–1) Students Status—

and ‘‘Certificate of Eligibility for
Nonimmigrant (M–1) Students Status—
For Vocational Students’’. Additionally,
there is a revision to add a new data
field for city of birth. This additional
field allows SEVP to distinguish
between applicants with the same name
and country of birth. The additional
field is not expected to increase the
burden per response.

respondents: The estimated total
number of respondents for this
information collection is 47,757.
