Dear
On 21 June 2010 we received your 11 June 2010 letter in which you state you are
cc...wondering why [you] have not received monetary compensation for [your]) work with
the Agency."
The Privacy Act, like the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA), was enacted to
provide a means for the general public to access existing government records. Under the
provisions of the FOIA, federal agencies are not required or authorized to create records
such as those you are requesting. Consequently, we are unable to process your request
since it does not constitute a request for existing records.
Although we are unable to create records, you may still request a search for
existing records pertaining to you.
The Privacy Act requires federal agencies to safeguard personally identifiable
information about an individual. CIA's Privacy Regulations, Title 32 C.F.R. � 1901.13,
establish the criteria below:
An individual seeking access to or amendment of records about
himself shall provide in the letter of request his full (legal) name,
address, date and place of birth, and current citizenship status
together with a statement that such information is true under
penalty of perjury or a notarized statement swearing to or
affirming his identity. In the case of an individual who is an alien
lawfully admitted for permanent residence, said individual shall
provide his or her alien registration number and the date that status
was acquired.

You must send us a statement with this information before we could begin
processing such a request. You must have your statement notarized, or sign it under
penalty of perjury (28 U.S.C. � 1746), and verify that you are a U.S. citizen or a legal
permanent resident. If you are a legal permanent resident (LPR), you must provide your
LPR number and the date that status was acquired. If you have become a U.S. citizen, you
must provide your naturalization number and the date that status was acquired. You may
submit any additional information you wish to help us ensure that our search is as
comprehensive and accurate as possible.
