Federal Register / Vol. 89, No. 207 / Friday, October 25, 2024 / Notices 85229 

1On July 22, 2021, USCIS approved an additional 

credentialing organization, Josef Silny & Associates, 

Inc. as authorized to issue healthcare certificates 

and certified statements. See 86 FR 40867 (Jul. 29, 

2021). USCIS maintains the full list of approved 

credentialing organizations on its website—https://

enhance the accuracy in the 

identification of the visitor. 

TSA uses the vetting results to 

determine the suitability of an 

individual requesting access to the TSA 

NCR, including whether the individual 

has a criminal history that would 

warrant further investigation and review 

before TSA grants access to the facility. 

In reviewing the National Crime 

Information Center vetting results, TSA 

will consider whether an individual 

could potentially pose a threat to the 

safety of TSA employees, contractors, 

visitors, or the facility. TSA also uses 

the information to maintain records of 

access to TSA facilities. 

TSA previously used TSA Form 

2816A, Foreign National Visitor 

Request—Individual to collect 

information for individual foreign 

national visitors and for groups 

consisting of two or more foreign 

nationals, TSA Form 2816B, Foreign 

National Visitor Request—Group. 

TSA is revising the collection to 

remove TSA Form 2816A and transition 

TSA Form 2816B to a web form using 

SharePoint. This transition will help 

reduce user burden by incorporating 

system-populated fields and automatic 

submissions. 

TSA estimates the average annual 

number of visitors to be 39,213, with an 

annual time burden to the public of 300 

hours.

well as the DHS regulations at 8 CFR

Board for Certification in Occupational 

Therapy (NBCOT), and the Foreign

certificates. In addition, DHS

issue alternative certified statements 

under INA section 212(r), 8 U.S.C. 

1182(r). See 8 CFR 212.15(h).1 DHS 

regulations also establish detailed 

standards for the approval of additional 

credentialing organizations after 

consultation with the Secretary of 

Health and Human Services, and USCIS 

has created an adjudicatory framework 

for the filing and adjudication of those 

applications using Form I–905, 

Application for Authorization to Issue 

Certification for Health Care Workers. 8 

CFR 212.15(j) and (k). The regulations 

also provide for periodic review and, if 

necessary, termination of credentialing 

organizations. 8 CFR 212.15(l) and (m). 

Finally, the regulations direct DHS to 

notify the public of the approval of 

additional credentialing organizations 

by publishing notices in the Federal 

Register. 8 CFR 212.15(e) and (h). 

Further guidance on certificates for 

health care workers is available at
