Identification Cards for Qualified Retiring and Separating OIG Law Enforcement Officers — DHS OIG Directive
Summary
Department of Homeland Security Office of Inspector General Directive 257, issued July 31, 2014, setting procedures for qualified law enforcement officers who retire or separate to obtain an identification card under the Law Enforcement Officers Safety Act of 2004. The Act exempts qualified officers who separated after 10 years of service, and retired officers, from most state and local bans on carrying concealed firearms, but not from federal rules such as airline restrictions. The office will not issue a card to anyone barred by federal law from receiving a firearm. Holders must meet their state's firearms qualification standards each year at their own cost, and applicants must sign an indemnification agreement. The Assistant Inspector General for Investigations approves applications, and the Deputy Inspector General decides appeals.

SUBJECT: Identification Cards for Qualified Retiring DIRECTIVE NUMBER:
and Separating O IG Law Enforcement Officers
257
DISTRIBUTION: All Employees DATE ISSUED:
July 31, 2014
I. Purpose
This directive establishes policy and procedures for qualified law enforcement officers
( LEOs) who are retiring or separating from the Department of Homeland Security ( O HS)
Office of Inspector General (O IG) to obtain an identification card for the purposes of the
Law Enforcement Officers Safety Act of 2004, as amended ( LEOSA).
With certain limitations and conditions, LEOSA exempts qualified LEOs who separated
after 10 years of law enforcement service and retired LEOs from most State and local
laws that prohibit the carrying of concealed firearms. The LEOSA, however, does not
exempt these individuals from other Federal laws or regulations, including any
restrictions on carrying firearms on transportation systems such as commercial airlines,
nor does it extend to these individuals any authority for the use of firearms or any law
enforcement powers.
II. Scope
This directive applies to all retiring and separating O IG LEOs who meet the
requirements of LEOSA.
Ill. Authorities
A. 18 U.S.C. § 926C, "Carrying of Concealed Firearms by Qualified Retired Law
Enforcement Officers," as amended.
B. OHS Directive 257-0 1, '' Law Enforcement Officers Safety Act," October 10, 2008,
except as superseded by law.
C. O HS Instruction 257-07-00 1, " Instruction Guide on the Law Enforcement Officers
Safety Act," November 5, 2008, except as superseded by law.
IV. Policy
A. Regardless of an O IG LEO's years of service or employment status, O HS O IG will
not issue a LEOSA credential to persons prohibited by Federal law from receiving a
firearm.
B. OHS O IG will issue a Federal Law Enforcement Officer (Retired or Separated)
Identification Card (Attachment 3, LEO ID Card) which will be separate and distinct
from an employee's retired credentials.
DATE: July 31, 2014 1 OIG # 257
C. Each LEO ID Card shall, at a minimum, include the name of the individual, the

standing from O HS O IG.
D. To meet LEOSA requirements, retired or separated LEOs must annually be tested or
otherwise found to meet standards by a non- O HS entity authorized by the state in

responsibility of the retiree/separated LEO to meet the requirements of his or her
state. O HS O IG will not reimburse retired/separated LEOs for any cost associated
with the State firearm qualification requirements or provide firearm qualification
testing. O HS O IG will not certify a retiring or separating LEO's firearm qualifications.
E. O HS O IG shall not issue a LEO ID Card unless the applicant signs attachment 1,
agreeing to indemnify O HS O IG for, and hold O HS O IG harmless from, any resulting
liability for use of or possession of a firearm carried under LEOSA authority
(Attachment 1 ).
F. To obtain the benefits of LEOSA, retired/separated LEOs must have the O HS O IG
LEO ID Card and a state firearms testing certification in their possession when
carrying a concealed firearm as well as meet all other LEOSA requirements.

DATE: July 31, 2014 3 OIG # 257
original signatures; electronic signatures will not be accepted. Retiring or separating
SACs should submit their own applications directly to the A IG I.
B. The SAC will coordinate with the Human Resources Division, the Security Division,

F. O HS O IG LEO ID Card holders must annually certify to the Office of Investigations in
writing, by completing Attachment 2, that Federal law does not prohibit them from

holder's failure to recertify or an inability to meet the requirements of LEOSA. In
either of these circumstances, the A IG I will send a written decision of the revocation
to the card holder's last known address and request immediate return of the LEO ID
Card.

DATE: July 31, 2014 5 OIG # 257
C. Qualified Retired or Separated Law Enforcement Officer. A qualified
retired/separated LEO is an individual who:
1. Is retiring or separating in good standing from service with O HS OIG as a
LEO;
2. Before such separation or retirement, was authorized by law to engage in or
supervise the prevention, detection, investigation, or prosecution of, or the
incarceration of any person for, any violation of law, and had statutory powers
of arrest;
3. Before such separation or retirement, served as a LEO for an aggregate of 10
years or more; or retired from service with O HS O IG, after completing any
applicable probationary period, due to a service-connected disability, as
determined by O HS O IG;
4. During the most recent 12-month period, has met and continues to meet, at
the expense of the individual, standards for qualification in firearms training
for active LEOs to carry firearms as determined by the O HS O IG, the State in
which the individual resides or, if the State has not established standards,
either a law enforcement agency within the State or standards used by a
certified firearms instructor qualified to conduct firearms qualifications tests for
active duty officers in the State;
5. Has not been found by a qualified medical professional to be unqualified for
reasons relating to mental health;
6. Has not entered into an agreement with O HS O IG acknowledging that he or
she is not qualified for reasons relating to mental health;

drug or substance; and,

D. Retired or Separated Law Enforcement Officer Identification Card (LEO ID
Card). The LEO ID card refers to the photographic card issued by O HS O IG
stamped with the words "Federal Law Enforcement Officer ( Retired or Separated)"
(Attachment 3). The card satisfies the identification requirements under LEOSA, but
provides the holder with no law enforcement powers or authorities, nor any authority
to use a firearm.

in good standing.
___ (Initials) I have read and fully understand 18 U.S.C. § 926C and DHS OIG Directive
_, Identification Cards for Qualified Retiring and Separating OIG Law Enforcement Officers.
___ (Initials) I meet the following requirements set out in LEOSA, 18 U.S.C. § 926C, of a
"qualified retired law enforcement officer" in that I:
A. Retired or separated (or am about to retire or separate) in good standing from
service with the DHS OIG as a law enforcement officer, other than for reasons of
mental instability;
B. Before such retirement or separation, was authorized by law to engage in or
supervise the prevention, detection, investigation, or prosecution of, or the

arrest;
C. Before such retirement or separation, was regularly employed as a law

drug or substance; and,
F. After having read the list of categories of persons prohibited by Federal law (18
U.S.C. § 922) from receiving a firearm, I am not prohibited by Federal law from
receiving a firearm.
___ {Initials) At the time of my retirement or separation, there were (or, if about to retire
or separate, there are now) no actions or determinations pending against me concerning
firearms, psychological fitness for duty, suspension of security clearance, or disciplinary actions.
If there were or are any such actions pending, please initial here ___ and attach a
written explanation.
____ (Initials) I authorize OHS OIG to review any external records that may affect my
fitness to carry a firearm. I further authorize OHS OIG to release the results of any derogatory
information in OHS OIG's possession to the certifying authority of the State in which I will seek
certification. In the event the State certifying agency requests additional information, OHS OIG
will provide the certifying agency with that information to the extent it is relevant to my fitness
to carry a weapon. By initialing this paragraph, I waive all Privacy Act and other legal rights and
remedies against such disclosure, and indemnify OHS OIG and hold it harmless against any
liability for such release.
____ (Initials) Concerning firearms training and certification, I understand that OHS OIG
will not conduct or assist with annual firearms testing for their retirees or separated employees.
I understand that, to meet LEOSA requirements, I must obtain a certification issued by the State
in which I reside indicating that, within one year before the date I am carrying a concealed
firearm, I have been tested or otherwise determined by the State to meet the standards
established by the State for training and qualification for active law enforcement officers to
carry a firearm of the same type as the concealed firearm I am carrying. The availability of such
certifications varies by State, and it is my responsibility to determine and meet the
requirements of my State of residence for obtaining this certification.
____ (Initials) I understand that I must have a OHS OIG issued photographic identification
identifying me as a retired or separated law enforcement officer AND my up-to-date annual
State firearms testing certification on my person at all times when I carry a concealed firearm
under the authority of LEOSA. Possession of the photographic identification alone does not
authorize me to carry a concealed firearm.
____ (Initials) I understand that, in order to carry a concealed weapon under the authority
of LEOSA, it is .my responsibility (and not OHS OIG's) to ensure that, in addition to having the
required photographic identification and current State firearms testing certification in my
possession, I am also in continuing compliance with all other requirements set out in LEOSA and
OHS OIG's Directive. If at any time I no longer meet any one of these requirements or become
DATE: July 31, 201 4 9 OIG #257
subject to any one of the prohibitions, I must notify DHS OIG and the State and I will not be
covered under LEOSA.
___ {Initials) I understand that the required DHS OIG photographic identification is only
for the purpose of identifying me as a law enforcement officer retired or separated from DHS
OIG. Neither that identification nor LEOSA confer law enforcement status or arrest authority.
They do not authorize me to engage in any law enforcement activities or investigations.
___ {Initials) I understand that as a retiree I am no longer an employee of the U.S.
Government. As a retiree I cannot expect to be covered by the Federal Tort Claims Act; or to be
provided representation by the U.S. Government in any claim or suit arising from or related to
my carrying a concealed firearm under LEOSA; or to either have the U.S. Government pay or
reimburse me for payment of any judgment or settlement resulting from any such claim or suit.
____ (Initials) In consideration for the issuance of a LEOSA identification card, I hereby
agree to indemnify DHS OIG for, and hold DHS OIG harmless from, any resulting liability for use
of or possession of a firearm carried under LEOSA authority. In addition, on behalf of myself
and my heirs, executors, or administrators, I release and forever discharge the U.S.
Government, the Department of Homeland Security, DHS OIG, and their officers and
employees, from any and all claims, demands, actions, or causes of action, on account of any
claim of injury or damage to persons or property arising from my use of a firearm or DHS OIG's
issuance of LEOSA identification.
___ (Initials) I understand that LEOSA preempts State law. This means that, with certain
limitations and conditions, LEOSA exempts qualified retired and separated law enforcement
officers from most State and local laws that prohibit the carriage of concealed firearms.
However, I also understand that LEOSA does not supersede or limit State laws that permit
private persons or entities to prohibit or restrict the possession of concealed firearms on their
property, and that LEOSA does not affect State laws that prohibit or restrict the possession of
firearms on any State or local government property, installation, building, base, or park.
____ (Initials) I understand that LEOSA does not exempt qualified retired or separated law
enforcement officers from Federal laws or regulations, including any restrictions on firearms
carriage on transportation systems such as commercial airlines. I understand that possession of
DHS OIG photographic identification and a State qualification certification does not authorize
me to travel armed aboard a commercial aircraft.
____ {Initials) I understand that issuance of any photographic identification is totally
within the discretion of DHS OIG; that any photographic identification issued by DHS OIG is the
property of DHS OIG; that loss or theft of the identification must immediately be reported to
DHS OIG; that alteration, reproduction or copying of the identification is prohibited; that the
identification must be surrendered to DHS OIG upon request; and that misuse or failure to
comply with any terms, conditions, or requirements set out in this document may result in
revocation of the identification.
DATE: July 31, 2014 10 OIG #257
____ (Initials) I further state that I was not removed from Federal service by OHS OIG, did
not resign or retire after being told that I would be fired, did not leave OHS OIG by mutual
agreement because of specific problems, nor was I debarred from Federal employment by the
Office of Personnel Management or any other Federal agency. (ff this is not accurate, do not

reason for leaving).
