If you are doing a people search for someone in the military, you can use the freedom of information request for military information from the public records, which will have the full name, contact information, rank, duty assignments, decorations and awards, among other personal information. Contact the specific branch of service and department. You might want to give them a call and see what the procedures are and what you can request. Remember, every federal agency is different when it comes to rules and what federal records will be released under the Freedom of Information Act.

If the subject of your people search has been in the federal penitentiary system, you should try to contact the Federal Bureau of Prisons to obtain the public records on him or her, through the freedom of information request. You will find that unlike other federal agencies, this agency can be very helpful. When it comes to prisoners, the federal records are almost wide open. Visit their website or give them a call.

Additionally, if the subject of your people search has been or is currently involved in the federal courts system, including such things as the federal claims court, federal tax court, and federal criminal court, there will be public records of these documents for you to request under the Freedom of Information Act, through the freedom of information request.
Again, you will have to follow procedures and not everything will be released to you. For example, it would be much easier for you try and obtain federal records on John Doe’s lawsuit against the federal government ten years ago over his loss of federal back pay, then say trying to obtain public records from an ongoing federal investigation about John Doe’s tax evasion problems.
