The Freedom of Information/Privacy Act Record Request Form, INV 100, is an information collection completed by individuals submitting Freedom of Information (FOIA), Privacy Act, and Amendment record requests to OPMâs Federal Investigative Services (FIS), Freedom of Information and Privacy Act (FOI/PA) office. OPMâs FIS-FOI/PA office utilizes the optional form INV 100 to standardize collection of data elements specific to the types of record requests. Current record requests can be submitted to FIS-FOI/PA in a format chosen by the requester. Often, requests are missing data elements which require contact with the requester, thereby adding time to the process. Standardization of the process will increase the volume of perfected requests received and strike an appropriate balance between the burden to the public in submitting a request and FIS-FOI/PA being able to fulfill FOIA, Privacy Act, and Amendment requests in an efficient manner.
OPM proposes non substantive changes to the form.
