The Office of Volunteer Recruitment and Selection at the Peace Corps utilizes the Questionnaire for Peace Corps Volunteer Background Investigation form (BI form), formerly known as the National Agency Check Questionnaire for Peace Corps Background Investigation Form, as authorization from the invited Peace Corps Volunteer candidate to conduct a background check through the Office of Personnel Management (OPM) or other contract background investigator of pertinent records pertaining to applicants' interaction with the judicial system, qualifications, eligibility and suitability for Peace Corps volunteer service, as well as information relating to whether a Peace Corps assignment is consistent with the national interest, as required by the Peace Corps Act (22 USC §2519.) 22 CFR Part 305 sets out the eligibility and selection standards for Peace Corps service.

Miscellaneous Actions
Estimated number of Background Investigation forms has decreased (from 13,500 to 4,500) because we are only collecting information from those who have been invited to serve as Peace Corps Volunteers. We collected this information from ALL nominated applicants in the past. Completion time has decreased (from 30 minutes to 5 minutes) because qualified applicants who have been invited to serve are expected to be able to complete this form in a much faster time.
