The Federal Bureau of Investigation's (FBI) Criminal Justice Information Services (CJIS) Division, part of the Department of Justice (DOJ), has announced a proposal to revise a previously approved information collection, specifically the FBI Expungement and Sealing Form (FD-1114). This notice, in compliance with the Paperwork Reduction Act, invites public comments on the necessity, accuracy, and enhancement of the information collection, which is mandatory for state, local, tribal, and federal agencies. The collection aims to ensure accurate and secure identity history records in systems like the National Crime Information Center. The estimated annual response rate for this form is 147,610, with each response taking approximately 3.5 minutes, totaling an annual burden of 8,611 hours. Comments will be accepted until March 10, 2025.
Simple Explanation
The FBI wants to make sure that their record-keeping system is accurate, so they're updating a form people use to help fix mistakes in records. They also want to hear what others think about this new form before they make it official.
