- What it is for
- This form is used to ask the Department of Home Affairs to correct or annotate personal records it holds when the person believes those records are incomplete, incorrect, out of date, or misleading. Requests are handled under the Privacy Act 1988 or, in some cases, the Freedom of Information Act 1982, and the form also allows a person to have a note recording their own view attached to a record.
- Who completes it
- The individual whose personal records are held by the Department (or a person authorised to act on their behalf).
- Information it collects (in general terms)
- General categories include the requester's identifying and contact details, identification of the specific departmental information said to be inaccurate, the reasons the person considers it incomplete or misleading, and the amendment or annotation being sought.
- When it is used
- Used when a person wants existing personal information already held by the Department amended or annotated, as distinct from notifying changes of circumstances or incorrect answers in a pending application, which are handled through separate notification forms.
