Questionnaire for Public Trust Positions
Standard Form 85P
Revised September 1995
OMB No. 3206-0191
Form approved:
Follow instructions fully or we cannot process your form. Be sure to sign and date the certification statement on Page 7 and the release on
Page 8. If you have any questions, call the office that gave you the form.
Purpose of this Form
The U.S. Government conducts background investigations and
reinvestigations to establish that applicants or incumbents either
employed by the Government or working for the Government under
contract, are suitable for the job and/or eligible for a public trust or
sensitive position. Information from this form is used primarily as the
basis for this investigation. Complete this form only after a conditional
offer of employment has been made.
These include documentation of any legal name change, Social Security
card, and/or birth certificate.
You may also be asked to bring documents about information you
provided on the form or other matters requiring specific attention.
These matters include alien registration, delinquent loans or taxes,
bankruptcy, judgments, liens, or other financial obligations, agreements
involving child custody or support, alimony or property settlements,
arrests, convictions, probation, and/or parole.
Giving us the information we ask for is voluntary. However, we may
not be able to complete your investigation, or complete it in a timely
manner, if you don’t give us each item of information we request. This
may affect your placement or employment prospects.
Instructions for Completing this Form
1. Follow the instructions given to you by the person who gave you the
form and any other clarifying instructions furnished by that person to
assist you in completion of the form. Find out how many copies of the
form you are to turn in. You must sign and date, in black ink, the
original and each copy you submit.
Authority to Request this Information
The U.S. Government is authorized to ask for this information under
Executive Orders 10450 and 10577, sections 3301 and 3302 of title 5,
U.S. Code; and parts 5, 731, 732, and 736 of Title 5, Code of Federal
Regulations.
2. Type or legibly print your answers in black ink (if your form is not
legible, it will not be accepted). You may also be asked to submit your
form in an approved electronic format.
Your Social Security number is needed to keep records accurate,
because other people may have the same name and birth date. Executive
Order 9397 also asks Federal agencies to use this number to help
identify individuals in agency records.
3. All questions on this form must be answered. If no response is
necessary or applicable, indicate this on the form (for example, enter
"None" or "N/A"). If you find that you cannot report an exact date,
approximate or estimate the date to the best of your ability and indicate
this by marking "APPROX." or "EST."
The Investigative Process
Background investigations are conducted using your responses on this
form and on your Declaration for Federal Employment (OF 306) to
develop information to show whether you are reliable, trustworthy, of
good conduct and character, and loyal to the United States. The
information that you provide on this form is confirmed during the
investigation. Your current employer must be contacted as part of the
investigation, even if you have previously indicated on applications or
other forms that you do not want this.
4. Any changes that you make to this form after you sign it must be
initialed and dated by you. Under certain limited circumstances,
agencies may modify the form consistent with your intent.
5. You must use the State codes (abbreviations) listed on the back of
this page when you fill out this form. Do not abbreviate the names of
cities or foreign countries.
In addition to the questions on this form, inquiry also is made about a
person’s adherence to security requirements, honesty and integrity,
vulnerability
to exploitation or coercion, falsification, mis-
representation, and any other behavior, activities, or associations that
tend to show the person is not reliable, trustworthy, or loyal.
6. The 5-digit postal ZIP codes are needed to speed the processing of
your investigation. The office that provided the form will assist you in
completing the ZIP codes.
7. All telephone numbers must include area codes.
8. All dates provided on this form must be in Month/Day/Year or
Month/Year format. Use numbers (1-12) to indicate months. For
example, June 10, 1978, should be shown as 6/10/78.
Your Personal Interview
Some investigations will include an interview with you as a normal part
of the investigative process. This provides you the opportunity to
update, clarify, and explain information on your form more completely,
which often helps to complete your investigation faster. It is important
that the interview be conducted as soon as possible after you are
contacted. Postponements will delay
the processing of your
investigation, and declining to be interviewed may result in your
investigation being delayed or canceled.
9. Whenever "City (Country)" is shown in an address block, also
provide in that block the name of the country when the address is
outside the United States.
10. If you need additional space to list your residences or
employments/self-employments/unemployments
or education, you
should use a continuation sheet, SF 86A. If additional space is needed
to answer other items, use a blank piece of paper. Each blank piece of
paper you use must contain your name and Social Security Number
at the top of the page.
You will be asked to bring identification with your picture on it, such as
a valid State driver’s license, to the interview. There are other
documents you may be asked to bring to verify your identity as well.

Your prospects of placement are better if you answer all questions
truthfully and completely. You will have adequate opportunity to
explain any information you give us on the form and to make your
comments part of the record.
Final Determination on Your Eligibility
Final determination on your eligibility for a public trust or sensitive
position and your being granted a security clearance is the responsibility
of the Office of Personnel Management or the Federal agency that
requested your investigation. You may be provided the opportunity
personally to explain, refute, or clarify any information before a final
decision is made.
Disclosure of Information
The information you give us is for the purpose of investigating you for a
position; we will protect it from unauthorized disclosure. The
collection, maintenance, and disclosure of background investigative
information is governed by the Privacy Act. The agency which
requested the investigation and the agency which conducted the
investigation have published notices in the Federal Register describing
the system of records in which your records will be maintained. You
may obtain copies of the relevant notices from the person who gave you
this form. The information on this form, and information we collect
during an investigation may be disclosed without your consent as
permitted by the Privacy Act (5 USC 552a(b)) and as follows:
Penalties for Inaccurate or False Statements
The U.S. Criminal Code (title 18, section 1001) provides that knowingly
falsifying or concealing a material fact is a felony which may result in
fines of up to $10,000, and/or 5 years imprisonment, or both. In
addition, Federal agencies generally fire, do not grant a security
clearance,
or disqualify individuals who have materially and
deliberately falsified these forms, and this remains a part of the
permanent record for future placements. Because the position for which
you are being considered is one of public trust or is sensitive, your
trustworthiness is a very important consideration in deciding your
suitability for placement or retention in the position.
PRIVACY ACT ROUTINE USES
1. To the Department of Justice when: (a) the agency or any component thereof; or
(b) any employee of the agency in his or her official capacity; or (c) any employee of
the agency in his or her individual capacity where the Department of Justice has
agreed to represent the employee; or (d) the United States Government, is a party to
litigation or has interest in such litigation, and by careful review, the agency
determines that the records are both relevant and necessary to the litigation and the
use of such records by the Department of Justice is therefore deemed by the agency
to be for a purpose that is compatible with the purpose for which the agency
collected the records.
2. To a court or adjudicative body in a proceeding when: (a) the agency or any
component thereof; or (b) any employee of the agency in his or her official capacity;
or (c) any employee of the agency in his or her individual capacity where the
Department of Justice has agreed to represent the employee; or (d) the United
States Government is a party to litigation or has interest in such litigation, and by
careful review, the agency determines that the records are both relevant and
necessary to the litigation and the use of such records is therefore deemed by the
agency to be for a purpose that is compatible with the purpose for which the agency
collected the records.
3. Except as noted in Question 21, when a record on its face, or in conjunction with
other records, indicates a violation or potential violation of law, whether civil, criminal,
or regulatory in nature, and whether arising by general statute, particular program
statute, regulation, rule, or order issued pursuant thereto, the relevant records may
be disclosed to the appropriate Federal, foreign, State, local, tribal, or other public
authority responsible for enforcing, investigating or prosecuting such violation or
charged with enforcing or implementing the statute, rule, regulation, or order.
4. To any source or potential source from which information is requested in the
course of an investigation concerning the hiring or retention of an employee or other
personnel action, or the issuing or retention of a security clearance, contract, grant,
license, or other benefit, to the extent necessary to identify the individual, inform the
source of the nature and purpose of the investigation, and to identify the type of
information requested.
5. To a Federal, State, local, foreign, tribal, or other public authority the fact that this
system of records contains information relevant to the retention of an employee, or
the retention of a security clearance, contract, license, grant, or other benefit. The
other agency or licensing organization may then make a request supported by
written consent of the individual for the entire record if it so chooses. No disclosure
will be made unless the information has been determined to be sufficiently reliable to
support a referral to another office within the agency or to another Federal agency for
criminal, civil, administrative, personnel, or regulatory action.
6. To contractors, grantees, experts, consultants, or volunteers when necessary to
perform a function or service related to this record for which they have been
engaged. Such recipients shall be required to comply with the Privacy Act of 1974,
as amended.
7. To the news media or the general public, factual information the disclosure of
which would be in the public interest and which would not constitute an unwarranted
invasion of personal privacy.
8. To a Federal, State, or local agency, or other appropriate entities or individuals, or
through established liaison channels to selected foreign governments, in order to
enable an intelligence agency to carry out its responsibilities under the National
Security Act of 1947 as amended, the CIA Act of 1949 as amended, Executive Order
12333 or any successor order, applicable national security directives, or classified
implementing procedures approved by the Attorney General and promulgated
pursuant to such statutes, orders or directives.
9. To a Member of Congress or to a Congressional staff member in response to an
inquiry of the Congressional office made at the written request of the constituent
about whom the record is maintained.
10. To the National Archives and Records Administration for records management
inspections conducted under 44 USC 2904 and 2906.
11. To the Office of Management and Budget when necessary to the review of
private relief legislation.
