Management’s Electronic Questionnaires for Investigations Processing (e-QIP) and provide two

Fingerprint Cards (FD 258). e-QIP is a secure website that can be accessed from any computer system which has an Internet connection. Only the signed release forms and FD 258 will need to be mailed to the identified Chief Security Officer, the SF-86 itself will be transmitted to the FBI electronically.

To complete the SF-86 using e-QIP, the individual requiring unescorted access to the FBI facility must contact (insert Chief Security Officer, Division, and telephone number) in order to be initiated into e-QIP. Once this action has been accomplished, the individual should be able to access e-QIP at the following link in order to initiate and complete the electronic process:

http://www.opm.gov/e-qip/browser- check.asp. Thoroughly read and follow the instructions for completing the SF-86. NOTE: To fully address suitability/security issues, the FBI requires individuals to provide responses to questions on the SF-86 for the last ten years. Failure to complete the application as instructed may lead to significant delays in processing the required investigation and approval for unescorted access.

Upon logging onto e-QIP, there will be a prompt to answer three “Golden” security questions to establish the user account. After completing the electronic SF-86, please print and sign the (1)

Certification Form (CER) - Certify Completeness and Accuracy of your Investigation Request; (2)

Medical Release Form (MEL) - Authorization for Release of Medical Information; and (3)

Release Form (REL) - Authorization for Release of Information. In addition to these SF 86 release forms, the completion of a Non-Personnel Consent to Release Information (FD-979a), the United States Department of Justice Disclosure and Authorization Pertaining to Consumer

Reports (DOJ 555) are required. Annotation of the assigned e-QIP Investigation Request Number on the upper right corner of each document transmitted to the identified Chief Security Officer is required for coordination with the electronic transmission and to facilitate the investigative process. The e-QIP Investigation Request Number, automatically generated by e-QIP, is located on both the header and footer of the signature forms. These release forms (five total) and FD

258 should be mailed via Federal Express or UPS Express mail directly to the following address:

(insert name and address of Chief Security Officer). The use of regular U.S. mail channels may cause significant delays in processing the unescorted access request.

Upon completion of processing the facility access request, the individual will be required to execute a non-disclosure agreement suitable for their approved access.

B. All information is deemed “Sensitive but Unclassified” by the FBI, both paper and electronic formats shall have the following imprinted on each page:
