Abstract of Proposed Collection

    Section 101(a)(15)(E) of the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA), 
8 U.S.C. 1101(a)(15)(E), includes provisions for the nonimmigrant 
classification of a national of a country with which the United States 
maintains an appropriate treaty of commerce and navigation who is 
coming to the United States to: (i) Carry on substantial trade, 
including trade in services or technology, principally between the 
United States and the treaty country; or (ii) develop and direct the 
operations of an enterprise in which the national has invested, or is 
actively in the process of investing. Form DS-156E is completed by some 
applicants seeking E nonimmigrant treaty trader/investor visas to the 
United States. The Department will use the DS-156E to elicit 
information necessary to determine a foreign national's visa 
eligibility for such a visa.

Methodology

    After completing Form DS-160, Online Nonimmigrant Visa Application, 
applicants will fill out the DS- 156E online, print the form, and 
submit it in person or via mail.
