Comment
Commenter: Michael Piston
There is nothing to comment on here.
When one enters USCIS–2009–0015 into
the search box as instructed by the notice
one simply is able to download the very
same notice that was published in the
Federal Register. This notice does not
contain any copy about the notice of itself
nor any other information. Without a copy
of the proposed revision commenting is
impossible.
Commenter: Ana De Melo Ferreira
Thank you so much for everything
Commenter: Joshua Davis
I do not approve of the collection of
information of any citizen unless it
pertains to our safety.

USCIS Response
Response: GSA posted the supporting
documents to the docket on October 4,
2024. USCIS is publishing a notice to
allow an additional 30 days for public
comments to the supporting documents
following the closing of this 60-day
comment period.

Response: Thank you for your comment.
Response: USCIS is not precluded from
collecting information on U.S. citizens
through this information collection to the
extent such collection is necessary for the
administration of H-2 programs. However,
the primary purpose of this form is to
collect information about foreign workers
who have not reported for work, were
terminated, or ended the work period early.
As a part of that collection, USCIS collects
information identifying the U.S. petitioner,
or employer (if different from the
petitioner) so that it can associate the
notification with the relevant
nonimmigrant petition covering the foreign
worker’s employment. This employer
notification requirement maintains the
integrity of the H-2 programs and will help
prevent H-2 workers from either
knowingly or unknowingly engaging in
unauthorized employment.
