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 OPM’s Federal
Investigative Services (FIS), Freedom of Information and Privacy
Act (FOI/PA) office. OPM’s 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.
