SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title; Associated Form; and OMB Number: Department of Defense
Consent to Conduct Installation Records Check (IRC) (DD 3058); OMB
0704-0586.
Needs and Uses: The information collection requirement is necessary
to obtain information pertinent to the criminal history background
investigation of individuals working with children in DoD childcare
programs. The form facilitates vetting an individual's military
installation criminal history records and used for suitability and/or
fitness determination to work with children. Authority is granted by
DoD Instruction 1402.05, Background Checks on Individual in DoD Child
Care Services Programs which states all individuals who have regular
contact with children under 18 years of age in DoD-sanctioned childcare
services programs and who also have a current or prior DoD affiliation
must also undergo an installation records check (IRC). Individuals who
are interested in working for DoD or for a program operated by or
through a contract with the DoD must complete the DD Form 3058 ``DoD
Installation Records Check'' before working with children under the age
of 18 years. DoD programs and services that use this form include but
are not limited to: Child Protective Services (CPS) (including the
investigation of child abuse and neglect reports), faith-based
(religious) programs, Social Services Programs, Health and Mental
Health Care Programs, to include Physicians, Dentists, Nurse
Practitioners, Technicians; Childcare, Education Programs (whether or
not directly involved in teaching), Foster Care, Residential care,
Recreational or Rehabilitative programs, and Detention, Correctional,
and Treatment services. The types of individuals screened include
civilian applicants and employees, military members, contractors,
family childcare/home day care providers and their family members, and
volunteers. These critical checks help ensure all individuals working
with children have been thoroughly vetted and that all background check
findings have been properly adjudicated before the individual is
authorized to have access to children.
