SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Title; Associated Form; and OMB Number: 
Application for Correction of Military Record under the Provisions of 
Title 10, U.S. Code, Section 1552; DD Form 149; OMB Control Number 
0704-0003.
    Type of Request: Revision.
    Number of Respondents: 20,759.
    Responses per Respondent: 1.
    Annual Responses: 20,759.
    Average Burden per Response: 1 hour.
    Annual Burden Hours: 20,759 hours.
    Needs and Uses: Under title 10 United States Code 1552, Active Duty 
and Reserve Component Service members, Coast Guard, former Service 
members, their lawful or legal representatives, spouses of former 
Service members on issues of Survivor Benefit Program (SBP) benefits, 
and civilian employees with respect to military records other than 
those related to civilian employment, who believe they have suffered an 
injustice as a result of error or injustice in military records

Boards for Correction of Military/Naval Records (BCM/NR) for a 
correction of their military record. These BCM/NR are the highest level 
of

[[Page 64463]]

administrative review authority regarding official personnel records in 
the Military Departments. The information collected is needed to 
provide the BCM/NR the basic data to process and act on the 
Respondent's request. The Respondent applies to the respective BCM/NR, 
which uses the DD Form 149, ``Application for Correction of Military 
Record under the Provisions of Title 10, U.S. Code, Section 1552,'' as 
the collection instrument. The form is formatted in both electronic and 
paper format with text or hand-written fillable entries. The 
information from the DD Form 149 is used by the respective BCM/NR in 
processing the respondent's request pursuant to 10 U.S.C. 1552. The DD 
Form 149 was developed to standardize application to the BCM/NR. This 
information is used to identify and secure the appropriate official 
military and medical records from the records storage facilities. 
Information on the form is also used to determine status, to allow 
respondents to designate counsel of choice, to identify the issues 
involved, and to determine if the request was filed within the three-
year statute of limitations established by Congress (10 U.S.C. 1552). 
The request is initiated by the Respondent; therefore, there is no 
preemptory request or invitation sent to the Respondent associated with 
the information collection. The information collected from the DD Form 
149 is used by the respective BCM/NR to determine if an error or 
injustice has occurred in an individual's military record and, if 
applicable, the BCM/NR will promulgate a correction based on error, 
injustice, or clemency.
    Affected Public: Individuals or households.
    Frequency: On occasion.
    Respondent's Obligation: Voluntary.
    OMB Desk Officer: Ms. Jasmeet Seehra.
