Abstract:
This information collection permits DOL to meet its statutory responsibilities for program administration, management, and oversight under the Immigration and Naturalization Act. The Form ETA 750, part A, collects information needed for the professional athlete labor certification program for both temporary and permanent athletes. The H-2B program establishes a means for employers to bring nonimmigrant aliens to the U.S. to perform nonagricultural work of a temporary or seasonal nature as defined in 8 U.S.C. § 1101 (a)(15)(H)(ii)(b) and explained in 8 CFR § 214.2(h)(6). Professional athletes are included in the H-2B program. The Form ETA 750 Part B is collects information about the professional athlete on whose behalf an application for permanent labor certification is filed. Part B is also required by the DHS for aliens applying for the National Interest Waiver (NIW) of the job offer requirement. Part B provides detailed information about an alien's education and work history as required and explained in 8 CFR § 204.5(k)(4)(ii).

Short Statement:
The annual burden for these information collections decreased from 56,426 to 3,696 hours resulting in a decrease of 36,600 responses, 52,730 hours, and $1,111,091 over ETA's previous estimate. This change is due to new regulations by the Department for its temporary labor certification programs, which now use ETA Form 9142 (OMB 1205-0466). The ETA Form 750 parts A and B are used for certifications for professional athletes at the Department of Labor and the NIW program at USCIS. The burden for the programs that use the forms has been accounted for above and the decreased burden due to the temporary labor certification programs has been shifted to the information collection under that control number.
