SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 
    Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Form 11000-16 is used to 
request a DHS Personal Identity Verification Official (PIV-O) 
credential, and if applicable, a shield (i.e., metallic law enforcement 
or non-law enforcement badge) to accompany the credential, for DHS 
employees, contractors, and affiliates authorized to perform specific 
official functions pursuant to law, statute, regulation, or DHS 
Directive. This collection of information, using Department of Homeland 
Security (DHS) Form 11000-16, is necessary to support Homeland Security 
Presidential Directive 12: Policy for a Common Identification Standard 
for Federal Employees and Contractors, issued on August 27, 2004, which 
mandates a Federal standard for secure and reliable forms of 
identification. The collection is used in accordance with System of 
Record Notice DHS/ALL-026 Department of Homeland Security Personal 
Identity Verification Management System and Department policy to 
request a DHS Personal Identity Verification Official (PIV-O) 
credential, and if applicable, a shield (i.e., metallic law enforcement 
or non-law enforcement badge) to accompany the credential. A DHS PIV-O 
credential describes authorities delegated to specific DHS employees, 
contractors, and affiliates who interact with the public or Federal, 
State, local, or Tribal entities to perform authorized official 
functions pursuant to law, statute, regulation, or DHS Directive.
    The collection of information is obtained from (or on behalf of) 
the respondent, who may be a current or prospective DHS contractor 
(i.e., member of the public). The information is collected 
electronically using a fillable PDF form submitted to the respective 
DHS credentialing office. The respondent is responsible for only 
completing Sections 1, 2, and 3 of DHS Form 11000-16; the remaining 
sections of the form (Sections 4, 5, and 6) are completed by DHS 
Federal employees. Qualified personnel within the DHS credentialing 
office holding a requisite role in the Identity and Credential 
System(s) of Record use the collected information to adjudicate the 
action requested in Section 1 of the DHS Form 11000-16, and as 
necessary, enroll, identify and retrieve the applicant's record in the 
DHS Identity and Credential System(s) of Record.
    The collection of information is obtained from the respondent 
electronically using a fillable PDF form; upon completion, the form is 
submitted to the respective DHS Component credentialing office in 
accordance with internal procedures. This information collection does 
not have an impact on small businesses or other small entities. 
Collection of the information on DHS Form 11000-16 is voluntary; 
however, failure to provide the information requested may prevent the 
respondent (i.e., applicant) from receiving the requested DHS PIV-O 
credential and/or shield.
    There is no assurance of confidentiality provided to the 
respondents. Consistent with DHS's information sharing mission, this 
information collection may be shared with Federal, State, local, 
Tribal, foreign or international government agencies, including other 
DHS Components and offices. This sharing will only take place after DHS 
determines that the receiving entity has a need to know the information 
to carry out national security, law enforcement, immigration, 
intelligence, or other functions consistent with the routine uses set 
forth in Privacy Impact Assessment, DHS/ALL/PIA-014 Personal Identity 
Verification/Identity Management System (PIV/IDMS) and System of 
Records Notice, DHS/ALL-026 Department of Homeland Security Personal 
Identity Verification Management System.
    This is a new collection.
    The Office of Management and Budget is particularly interested in 
comments which:
    1. Evaluate whether the proposed collection of information is 
necessary for the proper performance of the functions of the agency, 
including whether the information will have practical utility;
    2. Evaluate the accuracy of the agency's estimate of the burden of 
the proposed collection of information, including the validity of the 
methodology and assumptions used;
    3. Enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to 
be collected; and
    4. Minimize the burden of the collection of information on those 
who are to respond, including through the use of appropriate automated, 
electronic, mechanical, or other technological collection techniques or 
other forms of information technology, e.g., permitting electronic 
submissions of responses.
