DOD needs to
re-submit these forms at the 30 day notice stage before July 2010
and should address the following areas in the revised forms. Place
the PRA burden statement at the end of the form and start with the
purpose of the form -- What is the authority to collection this
information? What is DODs authority to ask for SSNs in this case?
Also, if the service would prefer folks to do these forms on-line
please include some instructions on these forms directing folks
here? Describe the process the applicant will go through -- this is
less than a paragraph. Im assuming the applicant can add
additional sheets if needed or attach a typed document? Or, do you
want this handwritten? Who makes the final determination on
eligibility -- and will the applicant have the opportunity to
explain any information before a final decision is made? Disclosure
of the information DOD needs to describe who this information is
going to be shared with and the privacy act routine uses
Authorization for release of the information -- this needs to
include a signature -- as well as how long the authorization is
valid (probably not more than a year). Uniform Data Card If you
want folks to go to the website to do the order, please put this on
the form. Fall Senior Year Grades dont you need an authorization
from the student to be somewhere on the form? Travel Arrangement
Card What is the date June 27, 2005 refer to? Certificate of
Authorization I really dont understand what this form is for.
Perhaps a purpose section would help. Statement of consent can we
include a link to this form 5-50? Immunization Record -- I would
move Part 1 plus the applicants signatures to the one page of the
form and then do the health providers stuff on the subsequent
pages. Birth Certificate information Should the instructions say
to tape up all sides if you are enclosing a birth certificate?
Vision Survey dont you want more contact information on the form
for the provider? A phone number? Candidate Personal information
Data do you need a signature on the form?
