ONDCP to locate the system of records containing the record with a
reasonable amount of effort. Include specific information about each
record sought, such as the time period in which you believe it was
compiled, the name or identifying number of each system of records in
which you believe it is kept, and the date, title or name, author,
recipient, or subject matter of the record. As a general rule, the more
specific you are about the record that you seek, the more likely we
will be able to locate it in response to your request. (d) When making
a Privacy Act request, you must verify your identity in accordance with
these procedures to protect your privacy or the privacy of the
individual on whose behalf you are acting. If you make a Privacy Act
request and you do not follow these identity verification procedures,
ONDCP cannot process your request. (1) You must include in your request
your full name, citizenship status, current address, and date and place
of birth. We may request additional information to verify your
identity. To verify your own identity, you must provide an unsworn

made under penalty of perjury. To fulfill this requirement, you must
include the following statement just before the signature on your
request: ``I declare under penalty of perjury that the foregoing is
true and correct. Executed on [date].'' (2) If you make a request as
the parent or legal guardian of a minor, or as the legal guardian of
someone determined by a court to be incompetent, for access to records
or information about that individual, you must establish: (i) The
identity of the individual who is the subject of the record, by stating
the individual's name, citizenship status, current address, and date
and place of birth; (ii) Your own identity, as required in paragraph
(f)(1) of this section; (iii) That you are the parent or legal guardian
of the individual, which you may prove by providing a copy of the
individual's birth certificate showing your parentage or a court order
establishing your guardianship; and (iv) That you are acting on behalf
of the individual in making the request.
