Which form is used to request undercover operations?

• A. SF-819
• B. SF-1012
• C. G-259
• D. R-84

Answer: (A)

Requests for undercover operations are handled through a form designed specifically to capture all the details, approvals, and safety measures required for sensitive work. This form provides the structure to document the operation’s purpose, target considerations, expected duration, surveillance or covert methods, needed resources, and the necessary chain-of-command sign-offs. Using this dedicated form helps ensure legality, risk assessment, and proper accountability before the operation proceeds. That’s why this particular form is the best choice for initiating undercover operations: it is purpose-built for that kind of request and aligns with policy and supervision requirements. The other forms are used for different processes and do not provide the focused framework needed for undercover activities.
