Written comments and suggestions
from the public and affected agencies

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
agency’s estimate of the burden of the

methodology and assumptions used;
(3) Enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be

Overview of This Information

adjustment of status must file an
immigrant petition on behalf of the
qualifying family member using Form I–
929. Form I–929 is necessary for USCIS
to make a determination that the
eligibility requirements and conditions
