*Title; Associated Form; and OMB Number:*                     Standard Form (SF) 87 Fingerprint Charts; SF 87; OMB Control Number 0705-0002.                

*Type of Request:*                     Revision.                

*Number of Respondents:*                     3,136.                

*Responses per Respondent:*                     1.

*Annual Burden Hours:*                     261.                

*Needs and Uses:*                     The Standard Form (SF) 87 fingerprint card is utilized to conduct a national criminal history check, which is a component of a background investigation. The SF 87 is completed by applicants who are under consideration for Federal employment; by Federal employees, to determine whether they should be retained in such employment; by individuals being considered to perform work for the Federal Government under a Government contract or to continue such work; and by persons seeking long-term access to Federal facilities and systems. The SF 87 fingerprint chart is used in background investigations to help establish facts required to determine, for example, whether the subject of the investigation should be adjudicated to be eligible for logical and physical access to Government facilities and systems; suitable or fit for Federal employment; fit to perform work on behalf of the Federal Government under a Government contract; eligible to hold a position that is sensitive for national security reasons; or eligible for access to classified information. The SF 87 form is utilized only when a hardcopy fingerprint chart must be obtained, as                           ( print page 14456)                        opposed to the electronic collection of fingerprints.                

*Affected Public:*                     Individuals or households.                

*Frequency:*                     As required.                

*Respondent's Obligation:*                     Voluntary.
