# SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

*Title; Associated Form; and OMB Number:*                     Police Records Check; DD Form 369; OMB Control Number 0704-0007.                

*Type of Request:*                     Extension.                

*Number of Respondents:*                     175,000.                

*Responses per Respondent:*                     1.

*Average Burden per Response:*                     27 minutes.                

*Annual Burden Hours:*                     78,750 hours.                

*Needs and Uses:*                     Title 10, U.S. Code, Sections 504, 505 and 12102 establish minimal standards for enlistment into the Armed Forces. Among other items, these sections specifically prohibit the enlistment of those convicted of a felony. The Services have therefore developed standards which address the acceptability for Service persons with police records, adverse juvenile adjudications or court convictions. The standards are designed to screen out categories of persons who have probability of either becoming serious disciplinary problems or may not be able to adjust to the disciplinary demands of the Armed Forces. This information collection is needed to identify persons who may be undesirable for military service. The existence of a police record is one of the factors considered in establishing eligibility for enlistment or entry into highly sensitive career fields. Therefore, verification data from the individual and law enforcement agencies must be obtained before enlistment can occur. The form associated with this information collection is DD Form 369, “Police Record Check.” It is used by recruiters to inquire on applicants' backgrounds prior to acceptance to the Armed Forces, when, in the judgment of the recruiter, an applicant may be withholding information of prior offense history.                

*Affected Public:*                     Individuals or households.

*Respondent's Obligation:*                     Voluntary.                

*OMB Desk Officer:*                     Ms. Jasmeet Seehra.
