SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Need for Correction

On December 12, 2008, the Department of Homeland Security published an interim rule in the Federal Register at 73 FR 75540 to permit aliens in lawful T or U nonimmigrant status to apply for adjustment of status to lawful permanent resident. At 8 CFR 245.24 DHS inadvertently:

• Ended the sentence in paragraph (d)(9) with a ":" instead of a ";",

• Omitted the word "facts" immediately after the word "specific" at the end of paragraph (d)(9), and

• Ended the sentence in paragraph (d)(10) with a "period" rather than a "; and".

Correction of Publication

Accordingly, the publication on December 12, 2008, at 73 FR 75540 of the interim final rule that was the subject of FR Doc. E8-29277 is corrected as follows:

PART 245-ADJUSTMENT OF STATUS TO THAT OF PERSON ADMITTED FOR PERMANENT RESIDENCE

§ 245.24 [Corrected]

1. On page 75561, in the second column, at the end of paragraph (d)(9), revise the term "by specific:" to read: "by specific facts;".

2. On page 75561, in the second column, at the end of paragraph (d)(10), remove the "." and add a "; and" in its place.

Dated: December 30, 2008.

Michael Aytes,

Acting Deputy Director, U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services.
