Respondents who provide their personal identifiable information are consenting to collection of information by their action of voluntarily offering their I–9 documents, or fingerprints, irises, and facial profiles for biometric collection. Failure to provide requested information may result in denial of access to DOD installations, facilities, and buildings.
