Partner Information Form (PIF)

USAID utilizes the Partner Information Form (AID 500-13, or PIF) in conjunction with the Partner Vetting System (PVS), its information technology (IT) system of records, to collect and maintain records for vetting purposes to help ensure that USAID funds, USAID-funded activities, or other resources will not be used to provide support to entities or individuals deemed to be a risk to national security. The PIF is completed by organizations, entities, or individuals applying for USAID contracts, grants, or other funding. In addition to collecting data on entities applying for funding and the type and purpose of the award, USAID utilizes the PIF to collect data on key individuals of prospective awardees and subawardees. Information collected on such key individuals includes the following: name; other names used; date and place of birth; gender; citizenship(s); country of issuance; address; phone number(s); email address(es); current employer and project title; organizational rank or title; occupation; and professional licenses and certifications.
