[Question] What happens after I file a complaint regarding the denial of official time? [Answer] 
ORM is responsible for investigating claims related to the denial of official time. The investigation does not require a determination of whether the action was motivated by discrimination. The investigation need only focus on whether the denial of official time was appropriate. In order to determine this, the ORM field office with jurisdiction over the underlying EEO complaint must gather all relevant information regarding the request and denial of the official time. At a minimum, this will include a copy of your written request for official time and the supervisor’s denial and written explanation. All documents related to your official time claim must be included in the EEO complaint file. At the conclusion of the investigation, you will elect either a hearing before EEOC or a FAD from OEDCA, on the merits of your underlying EEO complaint as well as the alleged denial of official time. If EEOC or OEDCA finds that you were improperly denied official time, the agency may be ordered to restore such personal leave as you may have used in lieu of official time.
