-----------------------------------------------------------------------
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.

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.
