| HOW CAN I REQUEST OPFs? Learn more |
Official Personnel Folders (OPF) are primarily administrative records used by the government to make accurate employment decisions throughout a Federal employee's career. The government uses these documents to:
- establish and reinstate Federal employment (Standard Form 50 - Notification of Personnel Action which lists grades, occupation and pay);
- to verify and show the validity of Federal employment (Appointment Affidavit and Declaration for Federal Employment);
- to verify military service credit for leave, reduction-in-force or retirement (DD 214 - Certificate of Release or Discharge from Active Duty and the Military Service Deposit Election);
- and to record an employee's choices under the Federal benefits programs (Health Benefits Registration Form and the Designation of Beneficiary under the Federal Employees' Group Life Insurance Program).
