DHS/USCIS/PIA-021 Changes to Requirements Affecting H-2A Nonimmigrants and Changes to Requirements Affecting H-2B Nonimmigrants and Employers Final Rules

December 18, 2008. U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) is publishing this Privacy Impact Assessment (PIA) in conjunction with two Final Rules titled Changes to Requirements Affecting H-2A Nonimmigrants and Changes to Requirements Affecting H-2B Nonimmigrants and Employers. The Final Rules announce employers' requirements to notify USCIS when an H-2A or H-2B worker absconds, fails to report for work, or is terminated early and/or when any prohibited fees are collected from aliens as a condition of H-2A or H-2B employment. USCIS has conducted this PIA because the nonimmigrant visa programs associated with these Final Rules involve the collection of personally identifiable information (PII).
