U.S. Investigative Services


Question Posted Tuesday July 29 2008, 5:56 pm

Something was left on my door, like an official piece of cardboard paper. It says it's from the U.S. Office of Personnel Management Federal Investigative Services. The note on it says, "It is necessary that I speak with you regarding an individual who is being considered for a position of trust with the U.S. Government. Your comments regarding this individual's fitness and suitability would be greatly appreciated." It also has the name and phone number of an investigator on it.

Does anyone know what this is about?

Like the others said, it's probably someone that's applying for a job with the government. My neighbor was going for a promotion with NASA, so my mom had to fill out a paper, like what kind of neighbors they were, how often we associated with them, etc. It's probably something similar to that.

I guess the government wants to talk to you about someone who may be looking for a job with the government. They are doing this so that they can decide if this person is "fit" and "suitable" for their job.

If you don't know of any friends who were applying for a job with the government, then I guess I would say pretend like it never came.

If you want to see what it's about, maybe call the number and ask.

Unless they said something like "It's imperative that you respond", then I'm sure it's alright if if you didn't call or anything.

Someone applying for a position with the government listed someone at your residence as a character reference for a background investigation. They're not after you, they just want to ask some questions regarding that person.
