Individuals

Individuals are entitled, under the provisions of the Privacy Act of 1974, to request a file search to see if a record exists on the NDR. The individual request form should be downloaded, completed, notarized, and mailed to the NDR. REQUESTS CANNOT BE FAXED. The form can also be taken to the local motor vehicle agency and, for a small fee, they will send your request to NDR. In either case, NDR will send a response directly to the individual.

This form should be submitted to the State in which the employee is licensed. Any information you receive from the NDR should be made available to the employee. If you receive information from the NDR indicating that an individual is on file you will be provided with the name of the state, the address and telephone number in order to request a copy of the driver record to verify that it is the same individual.
