The National Technical Information Service (NTIS) is seeking OMB approval to revise the information collection for the Limited Access Death Master File Certification Program. This program, established under Section 203 of the Bipartisan Budget Act of 2013, restricts access to death records for three years after an individual's death unless the requester is certified. The collection includes four forms: NTIS FM161 (Certification Form), NTIS FM101 (Firewalled Status Application), NTIS FM100A (ACAB Systems Safeguards Attestation), and NTIS FM100B (AG/IG Systems Safeguards Attestation). Respondents must demonstrate a legitimate fraud prevention or business purpose and prove adequate information security systems.
