criminal conduct occurred, and the
nature of the specific job in question.’’
The instruction for questions 9 through
13 already includes an advisement that
the circumstances of each event listed
will be considered and in most cases,
the respondent can still be considered
for Federal jobs.
A commenter also recommended that
OPM direct agencies to afford screenedout applicants an opportunity to fully
explain the circumstances of their
conviction or charge in light of these
factors. OPM did not accept this
recommendation. OPM has already
provided extensive guidance to agencies
regarding suitability assessments and
consideration of information collected
during the hiring process; and the
commenter’s reference to screen-outs
appears to misconstrue the
individualized nature of Federal hiring
and suitability decisions. As stated in
the form instructions, ‘‘In most cases
you can still be considered for Federal
jobs’’ if you have a conviction record.
A commenter recommended OPM
amend the instruction for question 11,
‘‘Are you currently under charges for
any violation of the law?’’ from
requiring an explanation of the violation
to requiring an explanation of the
charges. OPM accepted this
recommendation. The wording change
will help elicit truthful responses in
cases where the respondent contests
whether a ‘‘violation’’ actually occurred.
A commenter recommended OPM
highlight the instructions in Item 16,
Continuation Space/Agency Optional
Questions. OPM did not accept this
recommendation. Instructions are
provided on the form regarding the
purpose of the Continuation Space/
Agency Optional Questions. OPM
accepted a commenter’s
recommendation to amend instructional
verbiage in Item 17 to clarify that the
instruction applies to individuals who
are applying for a position and have not
yet been selected as well as individuals
who have received a tentative or
condition offer of employment.
This ICR requests categorizing this
form as a common form. Once OMB
approves the use of this common form,
all Federal agencies using the form not
in connection with OPM’s own use
investigation may request the use of this
common form without additional 60 or
30 day notice and comment
requirements. At that point, each such
agency will account for its number of
respondents and the burden associated
with the agency’s use.
