Submission for OMB Review; Comment Request for Review of a 
Revised Information Collection: INV 41, 42, 43 and 44

AGENCY: Office of Personnel Management.

ACTION: Notice.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: In accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (Public 
Law 104-13, May 22, 1995), this notice announces that the Office of 
Personnel Management (OPM) has submitted to the Office of Management 
and Budget (OMB) a request for reclearance of revised information 
collection forms INV 41, 42, 43 and 44. OPM uses these forms to request 
information when conducting employment investigations. The 
investigations are conducted to determine suitability for Federal 
employment or the ability to hold a security clearance as prescribed in 
Executive Orders 10450, 12968, and 10577 (5 CFR part V), and 5 U.S.C. 
3301.
    INV Form 41, Investigative Request for Employment Data and 
Supervisor Information, is sent to employers and supervisors. INV Form 
42, Investigative Request for Personal Information, is sent to 
references. INV Form 43, Investigative Request for Educational 
Registrar and Dean of Students Record Data, is sent to educational 
institutions. INV Form 44, Investigative Request for Law Enforcement 
Data, is sent to local law enforcement agencies.
    Based on current usage, OPM estimates that 1,962,947 individuals 
will respond annually to the forms (902,204 to INV 41; 494,728 to INV 
Form 42; 135,304 to INV 43; and 430,711 to INV 44). We believe the 
forms require an average of 5 minutes to complete. The total estimated 
public burden is 162,924 hours.
