The Department of Labor (DOL) is submitting to the Office of Management and Budget for review and approval an Employment and Training Administration (ETA)-sponsored information collection request (ICR) for attestations for employers seeking to employ H-2B nonimmigrant workers. DOL invites public comments on the ICR by June 30, 2023.

The ICR supports the temporary final rule, “Exercise of Time-Limited Authority to Increase the Numerical Limitation for FY 2023 for H-2B Temporary Nonagricultural Worker Program and Portability Flexibility for H-2B Workers Seeking to Change Employers,” which is being promulgated by DOL and the Department of Homeland Security (DHS).
