Nobody Gets You Your OPF Faster
Your Official Personnel Folders (OPF) is the permanent record that follows a Federal employee throughout his or her career. The Government has filed records in your Official Personnel Folder to document events in your Federal employment history that have long-term consequences for both you and the Government. All documents pertaining to an employee's rights and benefits should be available within the personnel folder.
Although OPFs will vary widely in their content, your OPF will generally contain your applications for Federal employment (and documents such as copies of licenses, school transcripts and a certified birth certificate if a part of the application process), appointment support, selective service registration, DD214s and other proof of military service, awards, benefits (health and life insurance, retirement, thrift savings plan), investigative process, letters of reprimand or caution, performance information, personnel actions (SF50s), as well as other personal documents relating to or concerning your Federal employment.
If you need your OPF fast, same-day and/or tomorrow* GUARANTEED, or within one week – keep reading. That's precisely our business. We are the Federal Record expediters! Our on-site researchers will always be able to get you your OPF faster than if you were to apply through the government's standard web, correspondence, telephone and/or fax processing procedures.
Touchstone's Express Service is a personal research service. We act as your authorized agent. We assign your case to one of our specialized researchers who requests your OPF at the appropriate archives facility, physically, in person. If your order is received before 10 am Eastern Time, in many cases we can both make selected documents within your OPF available to you online for download through our secure server the same day and ship your entire OPF for your in-hand receipt the very next day.
Your records will be kept at NARA's National Personnel Records Center (NPRC). NPRC is one of the National Archives and Records Administration's largest operations, a central repository of personnel-related records, both military and civil service.
Although NPRC's Records Room is tasked to provide on-site researchers with their records requests same-day, most are returned to us in 2-4 days. We can obtain many records the same day. In well over 95% of cases, we will deliver your OPF to you within 7 business days.
You should take these Government internal delays into consideration when you place your order.
As a part of our personal Express Service, if problems are encountered, we will either e-mail or call you to discuss and resolve any difficulties. This speeds the process over snail-mail correspondence.
