Pre-Assignment for Overseas Duty

OMB 1405-0194

Collection is a physical exam form for employees and family members who are not members of any of the five Foreign Affairs agencies. The reason for using a scaled down form for this group is that they are typically not serving long term overseas and do not require the in depth testing required of those in the Foreign Service.
