GN 03340.050 Access to Records in Exempt Systems of Records

Some systems of records are exempt from individuals’ access because we compiled them for investigative or law enforcement purposes or the records otherwise meet the requirements for exemption under the Privacy Act. Claims records at the Field Offices are generally not exempt. However, claims-related investigatory records for developing fraud or other cases may be exempt.

A. Policy on access to investigatory records

Fraud and other investigatory records are exempt from the subject individual’s access only when they are part of record maintained within an exempt system of records. 20 C.F.R. § 401.85 provides more information about exempt systems of records, including a list of exempt system of records notice in section 401.85(b)(2).
