For instance, when the FBI has been requested to conduct background investigations on non-FBI employees applying for positions with other government agencies, sometimes medical information must be obtained. When it occurs, the non-FBI employee applying for the position is asked to complete the medical release form so the FBI has the authority to seek the medical information. 5.

It should only take each person about 15 minutes to complete the form. 6. An estimate of the total public burden (in hours) associated with the collection: There is an estimated 12.5 total annual burden hours associated with this collection hours anticipated for the collection.
