    Project Title: Application for waiver of the two-year foreign residence requirement of the Exchange Visitor Program.

    OMB No.: 0990-0001.

    Abstract: The Office of Global Affairs (OGA) is requesting an approval on an extension by OMB on a currently approved collection, OMB #0990-0001. The HHS program deals with both research and clinical care waivers. Applicant institutions apply to this Department to request a waiver on behalf of research scientists or foreign medical graduates to work as clinicians in HHS designated health shortage areas doing primary care in medical facilities. The instructions request a copy of Form G-28 from applicant institutions represented by legal counsel outside of the applying institution. United States Department of Justice Form G-28 ascertains that legal counsel represents both the applicant organization and the exchange visitor.

    Need and Proposed Use of the Information: Required as part of the application process to collect basic information such as name, address, family status, sponsor and current visa information.

    Likely Respondents: Research scientists and research facilities.
