SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Comments 

Written comments and suggestions 

from the public and affected agencies 

concerning the proposed collection of 

information should address one or more 

of the following four points: 

(1) Evaluate whether the proposed 

collection of information is necessary 

for the proper performance of the 

functions of the agency, including 

whether the information will have 

practical utility; 

(2) Evaluate the accuracy of the 

agencies estimate of the burden of the 

proposed collection of information, 

including the validity of the 

methodology and assumptions used; 

(3) Enhance the quality, utility, and 

clarity of the information to be 

collected; and 

(4) Minimize the burden of the 

collection of information on those who 

are to respond, including through the 

use of appropriate automated, 

electronic, mechanical, or other 

technological collection techniques or 

other forms of information technology, 

e.g., permitting electronic submission of 

responses. 

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 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 Non-profit institutions 

and individuals or households. SEVIS is 

an internet-based data entry, collection 

and reporting system. It collects 

information on SEVP-certified school 

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 Forms I–20s: 

‘‘Certificate of Eligibility for 

Nonimmigrant (F–1) Students Status— 

For Academic and Language Students’’ 

and ‘‘Certificate of Eligibility for 

Nonimmigrant (M–1) Students Status— 

For Vocational Students’’. Additionally, 

there is a revision to add a new data 

field for city of birth. This additional 

field allows SEVP to distinguish 

between applicants with the same name 

and country of birth. The additional 

field is not expected to increase the 

burden per response. 

(5) An estimate of the total number of 

respondents: ICE estimates a total of 

47,757 respondents. 

(6) An estimate of the total public 

burden (in hours) associated with the 

collection: 1,019,757 annual burden 

hours.
