SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Title; Associated Form; and OMB Number: 
Collection of Required Data Elements to Verify Eligibility; OMB Control 
Number 0704-0545.
    Type of Request: Extension.
    Number of Respondents: 50,000.
    Responses per Respondent: 1.

    Needs and Uses: Defense Manpower Data Center (DMDC) has implemented 
the Office of Personnel Management (OPM) Verification portal to provide 
a self-service, easy to use, navigable public facing website that 
allows individuals potentially impacted by the OPM data breach to 
securely provide personal identifiable information in order to 
investigate their eligibility for credit monitoring as a result of 
being affected by the OPM background investigation data breach without 
calling a Government call center. The information collected will be 
used only to verify whether an individual was impacted by the OPM 
cybersecurity incident involving background investigation records. Once 
the minimally required information has been entered into the OPM 
Verification portal, it will be compared to an electronic master file 
and verification will be accomplished electronically. After the 
Government has validated the individual's status, DMDC provides the 
information electronically to OPM and Defense Logistics Agency for 
subsequent processing.
    Affected Public: Individuals or households.
    Frequency: On occasion.
    Respondent's Obligation: Voluntary.
    DOD Clearance Officer: Mr. Reginald Lucas.

    Dated: February 23, 2026.
Stephanie J. Bost,
Alternate OSD Federal Register Liaison Officer, Department of Defense.
