IER offers language interpretation in
numerous languages. Employers may
also email IER at [email protected] or get
more information online at
www.justice.gov/ier.
Note to Employees
For general questions about the
employment eligibility verification
process, employees may call USCIS at
888–897–7781 (TTY 877–875–6028) or
email USCIS at I-9Central@
uscis.dhs.gov. USCIS accepts calls in
English, Spanish and many other
languages. Employees or job applicants
may also call the U.S. Department of
Justice, Civil Rights Division, Immigrant
and Employee Rights Section (IER)
Worker Hotline at 800–255–7688 (TTY
800–237–2515) for information
regarding employment discrimination
based on citizenship, immigration
status, or national origin, including
discrimination related to Form I–9 and
E-Verify. The IER Worker Hotline
provides language interpretation in
numerous languages.
To comply with the law, employers
must accept any document or
combination of documents from the
Lists of Acceptable Documents if the
documentation reasonably appears to be
genuine and to relate to the employee,
or an acceptable List A, List B, or List
C receipt as described in the Form I–9
Instructions. Employers may not require
extra or additional documentation
beyond what is required for Form I–9
completion. Further, employers
participating in E-Verify who receive an
E-Verify case result of ‘‘Tentative
Nonconfirmation’’ (mismatch) must
promptly inform employees of the
mismatch and give such employees an
opportunity to take action to resolve the
mismatch. A mismatch means that the
information entered into E-Verify from
Form I–9 differs from records available
to DHS.
Employers may not terminate,
suspend, delay training, withhold or
lower pay, or take any adverse action
against an employee because of a
mismatch while the case is still pending
with E-Verify. A Final Nonconfirmation
(FNC) case result is received when EVerify cannot confirm an employee’s
employment eligibility. An employer
may terminate employment based on a
case result of FNC. Work-authorized
employees who receive an FNC may call
USCIS for assistance at 888–897–7781
(TTY 877–875–6028). For more
information about E-Verify-related
discrimination or to report an employer
for discrimination in the E-Verify
process based on citizenship,
immigration status, or national origin,
contact IER’s Worker Hotline at 800–

Note Regarding Federal, State, and
Local Government Agencies (Such as
Departments of Motor Vehicles)
For Federal purposes, if you present
an automatically extended EAD
referenced in this Federal Register
notice, you do not need to show any
other document, such as a Form I–797C,
Notice of Action reflecting receipt of a
Form I–765 EAD renewal application or
this Federal Register notice, to prove
that you qualify for this extension.
While Federal Government agencies
must follow the guidelines laid out by
the Federal Government, State and local
government agencies establish their own
rules and guidelines when granting
certain benefits. Each state may have
different laws, requirements, and
determinations about what documents
you need to provide to prove eligibility
for certain benefits. Whether you are
applying for a Federal, State, or local
government benefit, you may need to
provide the government agency with
documents that show you are a TPS
beneficiary, show you are authorized to
work based on TPS or other status, or
that may be used by DHS to determine
if you have TPS or another immigration
status. Examples of such documents are:
• Your current EAD with a TPS
category code of A–12 or C–19, even if
your country of birth noted on the EAD
does not reflect the TPS designated
country of Afghanistan;
• Your Form I–94, Arrival/Departure
Record;
• Your Form I–797, Notice of Action,
reflecting approval of your Form I–765;
or
• Form I–797 or Form I–797C, Notice
of Action, reflecting approval or receipt
of a past or current Form I–821, if you
received one from USCIS.
Check with the government agency
requesting documentation regarding
which document(s) the agency will
accept. Some state and local government
agencies use the SAVE program to
confirm the current immigration status
of applicants for public benefits.
While SAVE can verify that an
individual has TPS, each agency’s
procedures govern whether they will
accept an unexpired EAD, Form I–797,
Form I–797C, or Form I–94, Arrival/
Departure Record. If an agency accepts
the type of TPS-related document you
present, such as an EAD, the agency

PO 00000

Frm 00088

Fmt 4703

Sfmt 4703

65737

should accept your automatically
extended EAD, regardless of the country
of birth listed on the EAD. It may assist
the agency if you:
a. Give the agency a copy of the
relevant Federal Register notice
showing the extension of TPS-related
documentation in addition to your
recent TPS-related document with your
A-number, USCIS number, or Form I–94
number;
b. Explain that SAVE will be able to
verify the continuation of your TPS
using this information; and
c. Ask the agency to initiate a SAVE
query with your information and follow
through with additional verification
steps, if necessary, to get a final SAVE
response verifying your TPS.
You can also ask the agency to look
for SAVE notices or contact SAVE if
they have any questions about your
immigration status or automatic
extension of TPS-related
documentation. In most cases, SAVE
provides an automated electronic
response to benefit-granting agencies
within seconds, but occasionally
verification can be delayed.
You can check the status of your
SAVE verification by using CaseCheck
at https://save.uscis.gov/casecheck/.
CaseCheck is a free service that lets you
follow the progress of your SAVE
verification case using your date of birth
and one immigration identifier number
(such as A-number, USCIS number, or
Form I–94 number) or Verification Case
Number. If an agency has denied your
application based solely or in part on a
SAVE response, the agency must offer
you the opportunity to appeal the
decision in accordance with the
agency’s procedures. If the agency has
received and acted on or will act on a
SAVE verification and you do not
believe the SAVE response is correct,
the SAVE website, https://
www.uscis.gov/save, has detailed
information on how to make corrections
or update your immigration record,
make an appointment, or submit a
written request to correct records.

The Federal Register notice that
solicited public comment on the
information collection for a period of 60
days was published on March 10, 2023
at 88 FR 15061.
A. Overview of Information Collection
Title of Information Collection: Study
of Child Care in Public Housing: PHA
and ECE Center Interviews Data
Collection.
OMB Approval Number: 2528–New.
Type of Request: New collection.
Form Number: N/A.
Description of the need for the
information and proposed use: The
purpose of this proposed information
collection is to interview key
stakeholders and HUD assisted families
to support the Study of Childcare in
Public Housing. This is a multi-site
study including six Public Housing
Authorities (PHAs) in three states.
Individual interviews will be
conducted with key stakeholders and
PHA residents in each of the six sites.1
These interviews are key to our
understanding of the Early Care and
Education (ECE) needs, preferences, and
use of families in PHA-owned housing.
Furthermore, these interviews will help
us better understand the barriers and
facilitators to operating co-located PHA
and ECE programs.
Stakeholder interviews: Within each
site, a key set of stakeholders will be
identified through the landscape scan.
Key stakeholders will include those
involved in the operations of either a
PHA, an ECE program, or a co-located
ECE program in PHA housing in a given
community. Within each site, we
anticipate conducting up to 16
stakeholder interviews with a mix of
virtual or in-person interviews,
depending on the preferences of the
stakeholders and local public health
guidelines.2 Potential stakeholders may
include: PHA directors, PHA resident
advisory board members, PHA
supportive service staff, Head Start
grantee directors, Pre-K directors, child
care resource and referral centers, state
child care subsidy office directors, and
state Head Start Collaboration Office
directors.
We anticipate conducting semistructured interviews with key
1 Interviews with state-level stakeholders will
primarily be conducted virtually. Interviews with
site-level stakeholders and families will primarily
be held in person, depending on public health
guidelines at the time of data collection.
2 We anticipate one to two interviews per
stakeholder group.

stakeholders. Interview questions will
address, but not be limited to, the
following topics: (1) Whether there is a
co-located ECE; (2) If there is a colocated ECE, processes for licensure and
quality rating assessments (if
applicable); (3) Facilitators and
challenges with operating co-located
ECE (as applicable); (4) How local ECE
policies effect the colocation of ECE and
PHAs; (5) How PHAs support families
in accessing ECE; (6) Proximity of ECE
programs to PHA (e.g., whether the
program is in a child care desert or
location with many options available);
and (7) Characteristics of local ECE
programs (e.g., cost, capacity, licensure
status, ages served, home- or centerbased, and hours of operation).
PHA resident interviews: In-depth
interviews are critical to understanding
sensitive topics that people might be
reluctant to discuss in a group. Given
our previous experience with qualitative
data collection in various housing
programs and contexts, we anticipate
that individual interviews will allow us
to better understand the specific needs
and experiences of families. We plan to
work closely with resident advisory
boards and key stakeholders in each site
to identify the best process for recruiting
families to participate in the study.
Recruitment strategies will be
responsive to local contexts and
sensitive to families’ preferences. We
anticipate recruiting families with
diverse needs and experiences,
including variation in child age,
employment status, and childcare
arrangements. We will work with the
resident advisory board, as applicable,
to vet interview questions prior to data
collection.
We anticipate conducting semistructured interviews with residents.
Interview questions will address, but
not be limited to, the following topics:
(1) ECE needs, preferences, and use; (2)
What families look for in terms of the
quality of care; (3) Facilitators and
barriers to accessing ECE (e.g., cost,
location, etc.), (4) Interest and use of colocated ECE programs; and (5) Support
received from PHAs in accessing ECE.
This Federal Register Notice provides
an opportunity to comment on the data
collection instruments and associated
materials to be administered to the
participants in the Study of Childcare in
Public Housing.
Respondents: Public.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
With some exceptions, the
Endangered Species Act of 1973, as
amended (ESA; 16 U.S.C. 1531 et seq.),
prohibits activities that constitute take
of listed species unless a Federal permit
is issued that allows such activity. The
ESA’s definition of ‘‘take’’ includes
hunting, shooting, harming, wounding,
or killing, and also such activities as
pursuing, harassing, trapping, capturing,
or collecting.
The ESA and our implementing
regulations in the Code of Federal
Regulations (CFR) at title 50, part 17,
provide for issuing such permits and
require that we invite public comment
before issuing permits for activities
involving listed species.
A recovery permit we issue under the
ESA, section 10(a)(1)(A), authorizes the
permittee to conduct activities with
endangered or threatened species for
scientific purposes that promote
recovery or enhance the species’
propagation or survival. These activities
often include such prohibited actions as
capture and collection. Our regulations
implementing section 10(a)(1)(A) for
these permits are found at 50 CFR 17.22
for endangered wildlife species, 50 CFR
17.32 for threatened wildlife species, 50
CFR 17.62 for endangered plant species,
and 50 CFR 17.72 for threatened plant
species.
Permit Applications Available for
Review and Comment
Documents and other information
submitted with these applications are
available for review by any party who
submits a request as specified in
ADDRESSES. Our release of documents is
subject to Privacy Act (5 U.S.C. 552a)
and Freedom of Information Act (5
U.S.C. 552) requirements.
