Order 9397 (November 22, 1943), as amended.
Purpose: The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) will use the information to conduct a security threat assessment. If
applicable, your fingerprints and associated information will be provided to the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) for the
purpose of comparing your fingerprints to other fingerprints in the FBI’s Next Generation Identification (NGI) system or its
successor systems including civil, criminal, and latent fingerprint repositories. The FBI may retain your fingerprints and associated
information in NGI after the completion of this application and, while retained, your fingerprints may continue to be compared
against other fingerprints submitted to or retained by NGI. DHS will also transmit your fingerprints for enrollment into US-VISIT
Automated Biometrics Identification System (IDENT).
DHS will also maintain a national, centralized revocation database of individuals who have had airport- or aircraft operator- issued
identification media revoked for noncompliance with aviation security requirements. DHS has established a process to allow an
individual whose name is mistakenly entered into the database to correct the record and have the individual’s name expunged
from the database. If an individual who is listed in the centralized database wishes to pursue expungement due to mistaken
identity, the individual must send an email to TSA at Aviation.workers@tsa.dhs.gov
.
Routine Uses: In addition to those disclosures generally permitted under 5 U.S.C. § 552a(b) of the Privacy Act, all or a portion
of the records or information contained in this system may be disclosed outside DHS as a routine use pursuant to 5 U.S.C. §
552a(b)(3) including with third parties during the course of a security threat assessment, employment investigation, or
adjudication of a waiver or appeal request to the extent necessary to obtain information pertinent to the assessment, investigation,
or adjudication of your application or in accordance with the routine uses identified in the TSA system of records notice (SORN)
DHS/TSA 002, Transportation Security Threat Assessment System. For as long as your fingerprints and associated information
are retained in NGI, your information may be disclosed pursuant to your consent or without your consent as permitted by the
Privacy Act of 1974 and all applicable Routine Uses as may be published at any time in the Federal Register, including the Routine
Uses for the NGI system and the FBI’s Blanket Routine Uses.
Disclosure: Pursuant to § 1934(c) of the FAA Reauthorization Act of 2018, TSA is required to collect your SSN on applications
for Secure Identification Display Area (SIDA) credentials. For SIDA applications, failure to provide this information will result in
denial of a credential. For other aviation credentials, although furnishing your SSN is voluntary, if you do not provide the
information requested, DHS maybe unable to complete your security threat assessment.
