Write your name and Alien Registration Number (A Number), if any, at the top of each sheet of paper and indicate the section and number of the item to which the answer refers. What Is the Purpose of This Form? This form is used by a person whose occupational status entitles you to nonimmigrant status under section 101(a)(15)(A)(E) or (G) of the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA) as a Government Official, Treaty Trader or Treaty Investor, or International Organization Representative, respectively, to waive rights, privileges, exemptions, and immunities associated with such occupational status. Where To File? If you are filing this form in conjunction with an application to adjust status to that of a lawful permanent resident, file this form at the same U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) office where you must submit the related Form I-485. If you are filing this form in conjunction with an application for reentry permit, file this form at the same USCIS office where you must submit the related Form I-131. Our Authority to Collect This Information The authority for collection of the information requested on this form is contained in 8 U.S.C. 1257(b), 8 CFR 223.2, 8 CFR 245.1, and 8CFR 247. Submission by an alien to request that you be permitted to retain status as an immigrant lawfully admitted for permanent residence, to adjust to that of an alien lawfully admitted for permanent residence, or to obtain a reentry permit, is voluntary. The solicited information on this form will be used principally by U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) to determine whether (1) the status of the alien applicant shall be adjusted under the provisions of section 247(a) of the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA), 8 U.S.C. 1257(a), to that of a nonimmigrant as described by section 101(a)(15)(A),(E) or (G) of the INA, 8 U. S.C. 1101(a)(15)(A), (E) or (G); (2) the status of the alien applicant shall be adjusted under the provisions of 8 CFR 245 to that of an alien lawfully admitted for permanent residence; or (3) the alien applicant may obtain a reentry permit under 8 CFR 223. As a matter of routine use, the information solicited may also be disclosed to other Federal, state, local, or foreign law enforcement and regulatory agencies, the Department of State, the Internal Revenue Service, the Department of Defense, including any component thereof (if the applicant has served in the Armed Forces of the United States); the Central Intelligence Agency, Interpol; and other authorized individuals and organizations. Disclosure of the information may be made during the course of an investigation to elicit further information required by USCIS to carry out it functions. Failure to provide any or all of the solicited information may result in (1) the alien's adjustment of status from that of a lawful permanent resident to that of a nonimmigrant classified under paragraph 15(A), 15(E), or 15(G) of section 101(a) of the INA; (2) denial of the alien's application to adjust status to that of a lawful permanent resident; or (3) denial of the alien's application for a reentry permit.
