Eligibility to Hold a Sensitive Position, to notify candidates of the
option to receive temporary employment after a certain stage in the
background check process and request their decision. ATF also uses the
form to collect information to determine if the candidate (respondent)
can be granted temporary eligibility to hold a sensitive position prior
to completion and adjudication of their full background investigation.
