Standard Form 85P S PDF Details

For many of us, the paperwork associated with a federal job can be daunting. From the 15 page form depicting our work history to a variety of training and medical certifications needed by some employers–it’s enough to make your head spin! Among these forms is Standard Form 85P S (SF 85P) which was created by the Office of Personnel Management in order to assess potential security risks among applicants for federal employment. SF85PS provides an appropriate level of background checks for most positions requiring access to sensitive information, depending on the specific security requirements in place. In this post we'll explore what SF 85P is all about, from who need it and what it looks like, to tips on filling out this important document.
