Abstract: The purpose of the collection is to enable the United States Office of Personnel Management (OPM), Federal Investigative Services (FIS), Freedom of Information and Privacy Act (FOI/PA) office, to locate applicable records and provide the requester responsive records pursuant to the Privacy Act of 1974 (5 U.S.C. § 552a). Authority to collect this information is contained in 5 U.S.C. § 552, 5 U.S.C. § 552a, 5 C.F.R. § 297.201(b).

Emergency Justfication: OPM is requesting emergency clearance of a new collection, INV100A, “Privacy Act Request For Completed Standard Form SF85/SF85P/SF86.” Emergency clearance is requested because the time to comply with the public comment provisions of the Paperwork Reduction Act would prevent the agency from responding to an unanticipated event. The collection will permit OPM to more efficiently process Privacy Act requests from individuals seeking to access their most recently completed SF85, SF85P, or SF86 that was used to initiate a background investigation. OPM is anticipating a sudden, high-volume influx of these Privacy Act requests due to the July 9, 2015 public announcement of the number of individuals affected by a cyberincident that involved the breach of the SF 85, SF 85P, and SF 86 forms completed by millions of individuals in connection with background investigations.
