for ``U'' Nonimmigrant Status; Correction

AGENCY: U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services, DHS.

ACTION: Interim rule; correction.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: This document contains corrections to the interim rule 
published in the Federal Register on September 17, 2007. The rule 
established the requirements and procedures for aliens seeking U 
nonimmigrant status. A review of the interim rule after publication 
identified erroneous references to filing fees for Form I-918, 
``Petition for U Nonimmigrant Status,'' and Form I-918, Supplement A.

DATES: Effective Date: October 17, 2007.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Laura Dawkins, U.S. Citizenship and 
Immigration Services, Department of Homeland Security, 20 Massachusetts 
Avenue, NW., Room 2304, Washington, DC 20529, telephone: (202) 272-
8350.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Need for Correction

    On September 17, 2007, U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services 
(USCIS) published an interim rule at 72 FR 53014 establishing the 
requirements and procedures for aliens seeking U nonimmigrant status. 
The SUMMARY and SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION sections of the interim rule 
made contradictory statements regarding whether there is a filing fee 
for Form I-918, ``Petition for U Nonimmigrant Status,'' and Form I-918, 
Supplement A. The regulation text itself contained an amendment to 8 
CFR 103.7(b)(1) and language in new 8 CFR 214.14(c) reflecting that 
USCIS would charge a filing fee for Form I-918 and Form I-918, 
Supplement A. As correctly stated in the Supplementary Information 
(page 53031, third column, paragraph D.), USCIS will charge no fee for 
Forms I-918 and I-918, Supplement A, but will charge the established 
fee for biometric services for each person ages 14 through 79 inclusive 
with each U nonimmigrant status petition.
