Overview of This Information
Collection
(1) Type of Information Collection:
Revision 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
Department of Homeland Security
sponsoring the collection: Form I–17
and Form I–20; U.S. Immigration and
Customs Enforcement.
(4) Affected public who will be asked
or required to respond, as well as a brief
abstract: Primary: Nonprofit institutions
and individuals or households. SEVIS is
an internet-based data entry, collection,
and reporting system. It collects
information on SEVP-certified schools
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 Form I–20,
‘‘Certificate of Eligibility for
Nonimmigrant (F–1) Student Status—
For Academic and Language Students’’
and ‘‘Certificate of Eligibility for
Nonimmigrant (M–1) Student Status—
For Vocational Students.’’
The Form I–17 will be revised to
collect previous school codes associated
with the school and/or owner, school
website links, emergency contact
information for the school, and
additional information on school
ownership, as well as to remove the fax
number field, which is now obsolete.
SEVP will be redesigning the ‘‘Program
of Study’’ page on the Form I–17 to
better capture the educational level,
degree, program of study, time
necessary to complete the program,
assigned Classification of Instructional
Programs (CIP) code, and mode of
instruction. In addition, SEVP will
require schools to indicate whether a
program of study is conducted
predominantly online, in a hybrid or

low residency format and whether
Curricular Practical Training is a
component of a program of study. Other
updates to the Form I–17 will allow
DSOs to select ‘‘weeks’’ as an academic
term length, require DSOs to provide
separate numbers for domestic and
international students when listing the
‘‘Average Annual Number of Students,’’
allow DSOs to list annual costs by
program of study or degree level, allow
DSOs to provide additional contact
information, require DSOs to indicate
whether they work full-time or parttime, and change a DSO’s ‘‘Title’’ to
‘‘Job Title,’’ to better collect information
on their position at the school.
The Form I–20 will be revised to
collect contact and other information on
legal Guardians of minor F and M
students, the date of graduation/degree
awarded, clarifying details on the source
and type of the financial support for the
F and M student, as well information to
indicate whether a student is engaging
in online education, on-campus
employment, and whether any
employment or training is being
conducted on-site or remotely.
(5) An estimate of the total number of
respondents: The estimated total
number of respondents for the
information requests Form I–17 and
Form I–20 is 20,890.
(6) An estimate of the total public
burden (in hours) associated with the
collection: The total estimated annual
hour burden associated with this
collection of information in hours is
815,505 hours. There is an additional
one-time burden in the first year of this
collection of 6,778 hours.
