STANDARD CONDITIONS OF SUPERVISION 
 
As part of your supervised release, you must comply with the following standard conditions of supervision. These conditions are 
imposed because they establish the basic expectations for your behavior while on supervision and identify the minimum tools needed 
by probation officers to keep informed, report to the court about, and bring about improvements in your conduct and condition. 
 
1. You must report to the probation office in the federal judicial district where you are authorized to reside within 72 hours of your 
release from imprisonment, unless the probation officer instructs you to report to a different probation office or within a different time 
frame. 
2. After initially reporting to the probation office, you will receive instructions from the court or the probation officer about how and 
when you must report to the probation officer, and you must report to the probation officer as instructed. 
3. You must not knowingly leave the federal judicial district where you are authorized to reside without first getting permission from 
the court or the probation officer. 
4. You must answer truthfully the questions asked by your probation officer. 
5. You must live at a place approved by the probation officer. If you plan to change where you live or anything about your living 
arrangements (such as the people you live with), you must notify the probation officer at least 10 days before the change. If notifying 
the probation officer in advance is not possible due to unanticipated circumstances, you must notify the probation officer within 72 
hours of becoming aware of a change or expected change. 
6. You must allow the probation officer to visit you at any time at your home or elsewhere, and you must permit the probation officer 
to take any items prohibited by the conditions of your supervision that he or she observes in plain view. 
7. You must work full time (at least 30 hours per week) at a lawful type of employment, unless the probation officer excuses you from 
doing so. If you do not have full-time employment you must try to find full-time employment, unless the probation officer excuses 
you from doing so. If you plan to change where you work or anything about your work (such as your position or your job 
responsibilities), you must notify the probation officer at least 10 days before the change. If notifying the probation officer at least 10 
days in advance is not possible due to unanticipated circumstances, you must notify the probation officer within 72 hours of 
becoming aware of a change or expected change. 
8. You must not communicate or interact with someone you know is engaged in criminal activity. If you know someone has been 
convicted of a felony, you must not knowingly communicate or interact with that person without first getting the permission of the 
probation officer. 
9. If you are arrested or questioned by a law enforcement officer, you must notify the probation officer within 72 hours. 
10. You must not own, possess, or have access to a firearm, ammunition, destructive device, or dangerous weapon (i.e., anything that 
was designed, or was modified for, the specific purpose of causing bodily injury or death to another person such as nunchakus or 
tasers). 
11. You must not act or make any agreement with a law enforcement agency to act as a confidential human source or informant 
without first getting the permission of the court. 
12. If the probation officer determines that you pose a risk to another person (including an organization), the probation officer may 
require you to notify the person about the risk and you must comply with that instruction. The probation officer may contact the 
person and confirm that you have notified the person about the risk. 
13. You must follow the instructions of the probation officer related to the conditions of supervision.
