Transition Worker; Semiannual Report
for CW–1 Employers.
(3) Agency form number, if any, and
the applicable component of the DHS
sponsoring the collection: I–129CW; I–
129CWR; USCIS.
(4) Affected public who will be asked
or required to respond, as well as a brief
abstract: Primary: Business or other forprofit. USCIS uses the data collected on
Form I–129CW to determine eligibility
for the requested immigration benefits.
An employer uses Form I–129CW to
petition USCIS for an alien to
temporarily enter as a nonimmigrant
into the CNMI to perform services or
labor as a CW–1 worker. An employer
also uses Form I–129CW to request an
extension of stay or change of status on
behalf of the alien worker. The Form I–
129CW serves the purpose of
standardizing requests for these benefits
and ensuring that the basic information
required to determine eligibility is
provided by the petitioners.
Form I–129CWR, Semiannual Report
for CW–1 Employers, is used by
employers to comply with the reporting
requirements imposed by the Workforce
Act. Form I–129CWR captures data
USCIS requires to help verify the
continuing employment and payment of
the CW–1 worker. DHS may provide
such semiannual reports to other federal
partners, including the US. Department
of Labor (DOL) for investigative or other
use as DOL may deem appropriate.
Congress expressly provided for these
semiannual reports to be shared with
DOL. 48 U.S.C. 1806(d)(3)(D)(ii).
(5) An estimate of the total number of
respondents and the amount of time
estimated for an average respondent to
respond: The estimated total number of
respondents for the information
collection Form I–129CW is 5,975 and
the estimated hour burden per response
is 3.5 hours; the estimated total number
of respondents for the information
collection Form I–129CWR is 5,975 and
the estimated hour burden per response
is 2.5 hours.
(6) An estimate of the total public
burden (in hours) associated with the
collection: The total estimated annual
hour burden associated with this
collection is 35,851 hours.
(7) An estimate of the total public
burden (in cost) associated with the
collection: The estimated total annual
cost burden associated with this
collection of information is $3,809,063.
