# CLANDESTINE SERVICESHANDBOOK NO. 43-1-1SECRETANNEX B## PERSONALITIES - 201 AND IDN NUMBERSCSHB 43-1-1CHAPTER III15 February 19601.  A relatively small proportion of the total number of personalities indexed by the CS are of active operational interest at any given point in time. These are normally, subjects of extensive reporting and CI investigation, prospective agents and sources, and members of groups and organizations of continuing target interest. Each of these personalities is assigned either a 201 number or an IDN number.2.  The 201 number serves a-dual purpose. It brings the files on these personalities into the CS records system. A single number, e.g., 201-123456, is assigned to each person, and a dossier controlled by this number is established which contains, or has cross referenced to it, all of the reporting on the individual's personal history, current status and prospects. Once the 201 number is assigned, it is used in future reporting on the individual both as a file number and in place of other identifying data. Up-to-date machine listings are published periodically to help field stations and headquarters desks keep book on those 201 personalities falling in their particular geographic or -functional area of interest.3.  It has become apparent that the 201 machine listings should include the identities of persons of operational interest because of their connection with a target group or organization even though there may not be sufficient information or specific interest to warrant opening a file. For example: A considerable number of stations are concerned with the activities of Cuban exiles. Coverage of their movements, factions and objectives can be assisted by furnishing all participating stations/up-to-date listings containing information under the control;

In addition to 201 per-sonalities, such lists should contain the names and identifying dataof persons who should be kept track of, although they may only be oftangential interest or on whom there may be little or no data otherthan that given in the listing itself.4. To accommodate this type of requirement in the 201 system,   identifiable personalities concerning whom enough information is not   yet available to require the opening of a file may be assigned numbers   of the following type but in the same series:IDN-123457These are relabeled "201" if a file is opened. IDN numbers are car-ried with 201 numbers in appropriate general or special listings,where they are identified by the letter "I" in the "Type of Name" col-umn. IDN numbers are not CS file numbers.5. All 201 code numbers are assigned by RID at headquarters,   either upon receipt of Form 831, or of a field dispatch. If a dispatch   is written about a personality not yet in the system, a 201 number for   it may be requested simply by writing under headquarters file number   in the dispatch form as follows:> Dispatch Symbol and No.> ΧΥΖΑ-12345> Headquarters File No.> 201-6. IDN numbers are assigned by RID at headquarters upon the   request of stations or desks which are developing special identification   programs within the 201 system. The field receives current notifica-   tion of new 201 openings and IDN numbers through the Field Index Card   Service.44SECRET

KENNEDY ASSASSINATION RECORDS ACT OF 1992Declassified and Approved for Releaseby the Central Intelligence AgencyDate:2003SECRETDOHB 70-1-1CHAPTER III15 November 1974ANNEX BTHE 201 SYSTEMRescission: Annex B of Chapter III, CSHB 70-1-1, 27 October 1966## 1. INTRODUCTIONThe 201 system provides a method for identifying a person of specific in- terest to the Operations Directorate and for controlling and filing all pertinent information about that person. The system also provides a means for identifying subjects of 201 files from various categories of information about them and for producing lisits of 201 personalities according to those categories. Only a relatively small number of personalities indexed are of sufficient interest to justify opening a 201 dossier. These are normally subjects of extensive reporting and CI investigation, prospective agents and sources, members of groups and organizations of continuing target interest, or subjects on whom a volume of corre- spondence has accumulated.## 2. THE 201 SYSTEMThe principal features of the 201 system are:a. *The 201 Number*: a unique number, i.e., 201-1234567, assigned to each individual in the system to serve as identifying file number for reporting on that individual.b. *The 201 Dossier*: the official file containing the 201 opening form (Form 831) and all biographic reporting on and references to the individual, i.e., personal history, current status, and prospects.c. *The Master 201 Record*: a machine record generated by the opening of a 201 file. This record produces the master 201 reference for the Main Index and stores the pertinent information which may later be retrieved for special listings.d. *Main Index Master 201 Reference*: this reference, printed in reply to an Index Search Request, is printed as illustrated below. When data are absent within the record, succeeding data items or lines will be moved up and the ref- erence consolidated.23SECKET

# SECRETDOHB 70-1-1CHAPTER III, ANNEX B15 November 1974e. *OI Code*: a two letter symbol used in conjunction with the 201 per- sonality records in the 201 system to record the association of an individual with organizations or activities of operational interest. OI codes cover intelli- gence and security service affiliation, whether staff or agent, or known or suspect, as well as activities of DDO interest. There are two categories of OI codes for use by components:(1) general OI codes (Attachment 4)(2) OI codes assigned to a specific component for intelligence services or other specific organizations.A component may request an OI code be established by submitting a mem- orandum to the DDO/RMO through the component Records Management Officer.A 201 personality may be assigned two OI codes. An OI code may be assigned when the 201 Personality File Action Request (Form 831) is initiated (see paragraph 3b below) by filling in Box 13 or a code may be assigned or added at a later date by a Form 831 amendment.The 201 system has the capability of producing machine listings of 201 personalities by OI codes. For example, if an OI code has been opened for the security service of a certain country a listing may be compiled of all members of that service.f. *201 Machine Lists*: produced from the mechanized 201 Index, based on names or other identifying information of personalities on whom 201 dossiers exist.3. OPENING A 201 DOSSIERa. GeneralThe opening of a 201 dossier is the prerogative of an operational com- ponent, in coordination with the Information Services Group. An opening creates a master 201 record. Changes to the master record and the occasional closing of a 201 dossier are controlled jointly by the desks and ISG. 201 dossiers may be opened on persons who meet the carding criteria described in Chapter II of this handbook, when there is a reasonable expectation that additional information will be acquired and filed in such a dossier. Generally dossiers are opened on persons about whom counterintelligence information is being reported, and per- sons of operational interest to the Operations Directorate, specifically those persons for whom provisional operational approvals and operational approvals are requested (see exception below). 201 files are not to be opened on staff employees, staff agents and most categories of contract employees.

Some desks levy requirements on ISG for automatic 201 openings on certain categories of persons whose names appear in incoming dispatches. These are listed in Attachment 2. 201 dossiers should be opened in the following categories:(1) Subjects of provisional operational approval and operational approval requests. However, a file need not be opened when a POA is requested for persons being trained for a foreign liaison service and who are of operational interest for training purposes only.(2) Persons for whom the field requests a 201 opening.(3) MHFIXTURE personalities: bonafide diplomats of other than denied area countries, in close association with staff personnel.(4) Subjects of a Personal Record Questionnaire Part I.(5) Persons on whom a Main-Index search reveals information in five or more documents (see DOΙ 70-20).(6) Subjects of Interagency Source Register memoranda from LSN/ ISR (opened only by IP/RMS).b. Requesting a 201 File OpeningHeadquarters desks may open a 201 file by filling out and submitting a 201 Personality File Action Request (Form 831) to the Records Maintenance Section (IP/RMS). Form 831 is also used to create or amend the master 201 record and 201 machine listings and to register the assignment of a cryptonym to a 201 personality. Attachment 3 consists of sample 201 Personality File Action Requests for opening and amending 201's. A field station may request the opening of a 201 file by writing 201- in the Headquarters file or cross-reference box on the dispatch form and/or after the subject's name in the body of the dispatch. A telepouch request for a 201 opening is made by indicating 201- in the file number line. A cable request is made by placing 201- after the term "File" on the last line of the transmission. IP/AN will open 201 files as requested by dispatch or telepouch but it is the responsibility of the desk to respond to cable requests. Field stations are notified of 201 openings through receipt of the field master 201 record.26SECRET

# 13-00000SECRETDOHB 70-1-1CHAPTER III, ANNEX B15 November 1974a. PurgingPurging a 201 dossier is the responsibility of the desk officer. It requires discrimination in recognizing operationally useful material, rather than the simple distinction between official and unofficial papers; it will therefore take place under the supervision of a Records Officer. Purging should be done periodically. A 201 dossier being forwarded to Central Files for retention should be purged. A 201 dossier should be purged of the following:(1) Duplicate material, i.e., exact copy(s) of a document.(2) Name trace form (Form 362) unless it has been the basis for the opening.(3) All abstract slips.(4) All document restriction notices (Form 1884).(5) The disseminated version of positive intelligence information if a copy of the raw report is contained in the 201 file; the dissemination number then must be transferred to the first page of the raw report.(6) Routing slips, routing and record sheets (Form 610) and dispatch cover sheets unless there are remarks such as coordinations or comments.(7) Record copy documents which only repeat substantive information contained in other documents in the file; authorization for destruction is by the Records Officer.(8) Top Secret documents are not to be retained in a 201 dossier forwarded to Central Files; the document must be downgraded for retention in the 201 dossier. To downgrade a Top Secret document, an authorized officer in the originating office or the Records Officer having jurisdiction over the contents of the material must possess Top Secret classification authority. If the document cannot be downgraded the file should be retained at the desk or the copy of the TS document should be removed, retained in a desk TS file or forwarded to the Top Secret Control Officer, and a cross-reference sheet (Form 867) placed in the 201 file giving the location of the TS document.(9) Deferred documents (see 5b(2)).b. Maintenance Procedures(1) All material in a 201 dossier will be filed in document date order. In the case of document attachments which have been classified into a 20126.2SECRET

If they are to be retained in the dossier they should be sent to IP/RMS for classification into that 201.(3) Field index cards (held by some desks) and area desk cards may be retained in the 201 as part of a consolidation procedure. These cards should be mounted on a full-size sheet of paper for filing in the 201..(4) A 201 dossier previously opened on a person who becomes a staff employee and which contains Record Copy documents will be restricted to the ISG/DIP unless the desk retains the restriction. The dossier should be closed if there are no Record Copy documents in it.(5) A 201 opened in pseudonym should be consolidated into the true name 201 if one exists or converted to the true name.(6) Field and duplicate (shadow) 201 files no longer of active interest should be incorporated into the official 201 after the duplicate material has been purged by the desk officer and the remaining information classified to that 201 by the Analysis Section (IP/AN).(7) Any document with a predecessor organization cover sheet or an OPC (Office of Policy Coordination) cover sheet from the Archives and Disposition Section (IP/ARD) must be returned to IP/ARD for processing to the 201.(8) Desk memoranda (with or without a document source number) containing substantive or derogatory information on the subject of the 201 should be sent to. IP/AN to be classified officially into the 201 file:(9) An attachment which should be separated from its basic document for inclusion in a-201 personality dossier will be forwarded with the basic document to IP/AN for processing into thế 201.(10) To retain the P&L, RYBAT, or KAPOK sensitivity of a document remaining in a 201 dossier being retired to Central Files, place that document in an envelope sealed with black tape (see DOI 70-17). Any RYBAT, P&L, or KAPOK document sent to Central Files not in a black-taped envelope will automatically be handled as desensitized. A black-taped envelope may contain only one document and must be filed in chronological order within the file. If there are numerous documents of this type the desk officer may black-tape the entire dossier rather than individual documents (see DOI 70-10).26.3SECRET
