Description: As noted in the Notice of Proposed Rulemaking, the
public reporting burden for this collection of information is expected
to increase, based upon the Department's operating experience, from an
average of one hour per response to one and one-quarter hours per
response, including the time for reviewing instructions, searching
existing information/data sources, gathering and maintaining the
information/data needed, and preparing the application. The reporting
burden is expected to increase due to the proposed requirement that
employers provide notice to H-1B nonimmigrants of the terms and
conditions of employment. The employer will be required to attest that
it has provided, or will provide, to each H-1B nonimmigrant a copy of
the Labor Condition Application (LCA) under which they are employed no
later than the date the H-1B nonimmigrant reports to work at the place
of employment. This is the only amendment contained in the final rule
which is expected to increase the reporting burden per response.
Further, at the request of a number of commenters, boxes have been
added to Item 7(e), ``Prevailing Wage Rate and Its Source.'' If the
employer is relying on a prevailing wage determination obtained from a
State Employment Security Agency (SESA), the employer will only be
required to specify the rate and check the box marked ``SESA,'' as
opposed to writing the name of the agency. If the employer utilized
some other source to determine the prevailing wage, the employer must
specify the rate, check the box marked ``Other,'' and specify such
other source.
Kenneth A. Mills,
Departmental Clearance Officer.
