Terms of Clearance: Pursuant to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, OPM's Information Collection Request to amend its clearance of the SF 86 (OMB #3206-0005) is approved by OMB/OIRA as submitted, through September 30, 2008. OMB notes that the revised question 21 on the SF 86 was circulated widely for interagency review and that several agencies provided comments. To address concerns that some servicemen/women might forgo counseling to help them adjust from combat out of concern about disclosing that information on the SF 86, OMB is clearing OPM's request, consistent with OPM's agreement to consider issues raised by commenting agencies, informed by its implementation of this change. Upon resubmission of the collection for OMB review, OMB will ask that: (1) OPM provide its analysis and recommendations on interagency concerns, such as clarity of the change, impact on background investigations, reciprocity, suitability, and appropriateness of other options. (2) OPM have consulted with commenting agencies in reaching its determinations, including those with expertise in mental health issues In addition, when implementing this change, OPM will clarify for federal agencies that investigators conducting background investigations are not precluded from pursuing information regarding mental health counseling that is discovered during that process. Previous Terms of Clearance continue to apply.
