written request for the current deferment of the registrant. When a registrant is classified in Class II-A, or Class II-C, the date of the termination of the deferment shall be entered on the Classification Advice (SSS Form No. 111).

(c) After each local board meeting, a copy of the Local Board Action Report (SSS Form No. 112-B), listing the registrants who have been classified or whose classifications have been changed, shall be posted and kept permanently posted in a conspicuous place in the office of the local board. When a person is unable to ascertain the current classification of a registrant from the posted copy of the Local Board Action Report (SSS Form No. 112-B), an employee of the local board, upon request, shall consult the Classification Record (SSS Form No. 102) and furnish to the person making inquiry the current classification of such registrant.

(d) When the local board classifies or changes the classification of a registrant, it shall record such classification on the Classification Questionnaire (SSS Form No. 100), the Classification Record (SSS Form No. 102), and in the space provided therefor on the face of the Cover Sheet (SSS Form No. 101).

§ 623.6 Wrongful possession of, or making, altering, forging, or counterfeiting, Notice of Classification (SSS Form

819355-49- -11

No. 110) prohibited. It shall be a violation of these regulations for any person to have in his possession a Notice of Classification (SSS Form No. 110) issued to some other person, or to permit a Notice of Classification (SSS Form No. 110) issued to him to be in possession of any other person except as provided in the instructions upon such form; or to falsely make, alter, forge, or counterfeit, or cause or procure to be falsely made, altered, forged, or counterfeited, or to willingly aid or assist another to falsely make, alter, forge, or counterfeit, any Notice of Classification (SSS Form No. 110), or to utter or publish as true, or cause to be uttered or published as true, or have in his possession with the intent to utter or publish as true, any such false, altered, forged, or counterfeited Notice of Classification (SSS Form No. 110); or to exhibit or present to any person any such false, altered, forged, or counterfeited, Notice of Classification (SSS Form No. 110), knowing the same to be false, forged, altered or counterfeited.

§ 623.7 Issuing a duplicate of a lost, mislaid, stolen, or destroyed Notice of Classification (SSS Form No. 110). A duplicate Notice of Classification (SSS Form No. 110) may be issued to a registrant only by the local board which mailed the original Notice of Classification (SSS Form No. 110) to the registrant upon written application made on Request for Duplicate Notice of Classification (SSS Form No. 113) and the presentation of proof satisfactory to the local board that the Notice of Classification (SSS Form No. 110) of the registrant has been lost, mislaid, stolen, or destroyed and that the registrant has made a diligent search for the Notice of Classification (SSS Form No. 110) and has been unable to find it. If the local board issues a duplicate Notice of Classification (SSS Form No. 110), it shall mark it "Duplicate" and note the issuance of such Notice of Classification (SSS Form No. 110) upon the application, which shall be filed in the registrant's Cover Sheet (SSS Form No. 101).

§ 623.8 Register of conscientious objectors. The local board shall list on a register of conscientious objectors, each registrant whose claim for special classification as a conscientious objector has been sustained, either by the local board or upon appeal. The register of conscientious objectors shall show separately those registrants who have been classi

Page 147

fied as available for noncombatant military service (Class I-A-O) and those who have been deferred in Class IV-E. No special form is provided for this register.

§ 623.9 Registrants transferred for classification. (a) After returning the Classification Questionnaire (SSS Form No. 100), and before the local board of origin has undertaken the classification of a registrant, he may be transferred to another local board for classification if he is so far from his local board as to make complying with notices a hardship.

(b) After returning the Classification Questionnaire (SSS Form No. 100), a registrant may be transferred to another local board for classification, at any time, when a majority of the members of the local board cannot act on his case because of disqualification under the provisions of § 604.55 of this chapter, or when a majority of the members of the local board, because of any conflicting interest, bias, or other reason, withdraw from consideration of the registrant's classification.

§ 623.10 Procedure upon transfer for classification. (a) The local board from which the registrant is transferred shall prepare, in triplicate, an Order for Transfer for Classification (SSS Form No. 114), shall send one copy thereof to the registrant, and shall transmit the original to the local board to which the registrant is transferred, together with all papers pertaining to the registrant except the Registration Card (SSS Form No. 1) and the remaining copy of the Order for Transfer for Classification (SSS Form No. 114). The local board from which the registrant is transferred shall, with red ink note the transfer in the "Remarks" column of the Classification Record (SSS Form No. 102).

(b) The local board to which the registrant is transferred shall classify the registrant. It shall follow the same procedure as in the case of one of its own registrants if a request for hearing, a request for reopening, or an appeal is filed. It shall give the same notices and maintain the same records as are sent and maintained for its own registrants, except that it shall use a separate page in its Classification Record (SSS Form No. 102) for transferred registrants and shall make all entries on that page in red ink. The local board to which the registrant is transferred shall prepare a duplicate Cover Sheet (SSS Form No. 101). After the classification, after the hearing, when requested, and after the

determination on appeal, when taken, the local board to which the registrant is transferred shall return to the local board of origin all papers pertaining to the registrant except the duplicate Cover Sheet (SSS Form No. 101) and the Order for Transfer for Classification (SSS Form No. 114). In the proper column of the Classification Record (SSS Form No. 102) the local board to which the registrant is transferred shall note the date of the returning of the papers.

(c) The classification made by the local board to which a registrant is transferred shall be appealed through that local board only. The local board of origin shall accept and enter on its records, without any change, the classification reported by the board which classified the registrant. If the local board of origin receives new information that might affect the registrant's classification, the board shall send the information and the registrant's file to the board to which he was transferred for further consideration; provided, that if the disqualification of the local board or other reason for the original transfer for classification no longer exists, the local board may consider the new information and classify the registrant in the same manner as if he had never been transferred for classification.

§ 623.11 Registrant separated from (a) armed forces of the United States. Immediately upon receipt by the local board of information that a registrant has been separated from the armed forces of the United States, the local board shall review the registrant's classification to determine whether he should be placed or retained in Class I-C.

(b) If upon such review, the local board places or retains the registrant in Class I-C, it shall immediately mail a Notice of Classification (SSS Form No. 110) to the registrant on which shall be entered the notation "Class I-C-Disc." or "Class I-C-Res." as the case may be.

§ 623.12 Disqualified man. Unless and until the local board has first complied with procedures which the Director of Selective Service may prescribe, the local board shall not reclassify into a class available for service any registrant (1) who has been found to be physically or mentally unfit for any military service, or (2) who has been separated from the armed forces of the United States by reason of physical or mental disability.

624.1 Opportunity to appear in person. 624.2 Appearance before local board. 624.3 Induction postponed.

§ 624.1 Opportunity to appear in person. (a) Every registrant, after his classification is determined by the local board (except a classification which is itself determined upon an appearance before the local board under the provisions of this part), shall have an opportunity to appear in person before the member or members of the local board designated for the purpose if he files a written request therefor within 10 days after the local board has mailed a Notice of Classification (SSS Form No. 110) to him. Such 10-day period may not be extended, except when the local board finds that the registrant was unable to file such request within such period because of circumstances over which he had no control.

(b) No person other than a registrant shall have the right to appear in person before the local board, but the local board may, in its discretion, permit any person to appear before it with or on behalf of a registrant: Provided, That if the registrant does not speak English adequately he may appear with a person to act as interpreter for him: And provided further, That no registrant may be represented before the local board by anyone acting as attorney or legal counsel.

(c) If the written request of the registrant to appear in person is filed after such 10-day period and the local board finds that the registrant was unable to file such request within such period because of circumstances over which he had no control, the local board shall enter in the "Minutes of Actions by Local Board and Appeal Board" on the Classification Questionnaire (SSS Form No. 100) the date on which the request was received and the date and the time fixed for the registrant to appear and shall promptly mail to the registrant a notice of the time and place fixed for such appearance.

(d) If such a written request of a registrant for an opportunity to appear in person is received after the 10-day period following the mailing of a Notice of Classification (SSS Form No. 110) to the registrant, the local board, unless it specifically finds that the registrant was

unable to file such a request within such period because of circumstances over which he had no control, shall advise the registrant, by letter, that the time in which he is permitted to file such a request has expired, and a copy of such letter shall be placed in the registrant's file. Under such circumstances, no other record of the disposition of the registrant's request need be made.

§ 624.2 Appearance before local board. (a) At the time and place fixed by the local board, the registrant may appear in person before the member or members of the local board designated for the purpose. The fact that he does appear shall be entered in the "Minutes of Actions of Local Board and Appeal Board" on the Classification Questionnaire (SSS Form No. 100).

(b) At any such appearance, the registrant may discuss his classification, may point out the class or classes in which he thinks he should have been placed, and may direct attention to any information in his file which he believes the local board has overlooked or to which he believes it has not given sufficient weight. The registrant may present such further information as he believes will assist the local board in determining his proper classification. Such information shall be in writing, or, if oral, shall be summarized in writing and, in either event, shall be placed in the registrant's file. The information furnished should be as concise as possible under the circumstances. The member or members of the local board before whom the registrant appears may impose such limitations upon the time which the registrant may have for his appearance as they deem necessary.

(c) After the registrant has appeared before the member or members of the local board designated for the purpose, the local board shall consider the new information which it receives and shall again classify the registrant in the same manner as if he had never before been classified.

(d) After the registrant has appeared before the member or members of the local board designated for the purpose, the local board, as soon as practicable after it again classifies the registrant, shall mail notice thereof on Notice of Classification (SSS Form No. 110) to the registrant and on Classification Advice (SSS Form No. 111) to the persons entitled to receive such notice or advice on

an original classification under the provisions of § 623.4 of this chapter.

(e) Each such classification shall be followed by the same right of appeal as in the case of an original classification.

§ 624.3 Induction postponed. A registrant shall not be inducted during the period afforded him to appear in person before a member or members of the local board, and if the registrant requests a personal appearance he shall not be inducted until 10 days after the Notice of Classification (SSS Form No. 110) is mailed to him by the local board, as provided in paragraph (d) of § 624.4.

REOPENING REGISTRANT'S CLASSIFICATION § 625.1 Classification not permanent. (a) No classification is permanent.

(b) Each classified registrant and each person who has filed a request for the registrant's deferment shall, within 10 days after it occurs, report to the local board in writing any fact that might result in the registrant being placed in a different classification such as, but not limited to, any change in his occupational, marital, or dependency status, or in his physical condition. Any other person should, within 10 days after knowledge thereof, report to the local board in writing any such fact.

(c) The local board shall keep informed of the status of classified registrants. Registrants may be questioned or physically or mentally re-examined, employers may be required to furnish information, police officials or other agen

cies may be requested to make investigations, and other steps may be taken by the local board to keep currently informed concerning the status of classified registrants.

§ 625.2

When registrant's classification may be reopened and considered anew. The local board may reopen and consider anew the classification of a registrant (1) upon the written request of the registrant, the government appeal agent, any person who claims to be a dependent of the registrant, or any person who has on file a written request for the current deferment of the registrant in a case involving occupational deferment, if such request is accompanied by written information presenting facts not considered when the registrant was classified, which, if true, would justify a change in the registrant's classification; or (2) upon its own motion if such action is based upon facts not considered when the registrant was classified which, if true, would justify a change in the registrant's classification; provided, in either event, the classification of a registrant shall not be reopened after the local board has mailed to such registrant an Order to Report for Induction (SSS Form No. 252), unless the local board first specifically finds there has been a change in the registrant's status resulting from circumstances over which the registrant had no control.

§ 625.3 When registrant's classification shall be reopened and considered anew. The local board shall reopen and consider anew the classification of a registrant upon the written request of the State Director of Selective Service or the Director of Selective Service and upon receipt of such request shall immediately cancel any Order to Report for Induction (SSS Form No. 252) which may have been issued to the registrant.

§ 625.4 Refusal to reopen and consider anew registrant's classification. When a registrant, any person who claims to be a dependent of a registrant, any person who has on file a written request for the current deferment of the registrant in a case involving occupational deferment, or the government appeal agent files with the local board a written request to reopen and consider anew the registrant's classification and the local board is of the opinion that the information accompanying such request fails to present any facts in addition to those considered when the registrant was clas

sified or, even if new facts are presented, the local board is of the opinion that such facts, if true, would not justify a change in such registrant's classification, it shall not reopen the registrant's classification. In such a case, the local board, by letter, shall advise the person filing the request that the information submitted does not warrant the reopening of the registrant's classification and shall place a copy of the letter in the registrant's file. No other record of the receipt of such a request and the action taken thereon is required.

CLASSIFICATION ANEW

§ 625.11 Classification considered anew when reopened. When the local board reopens the registrant's classification, it shall consider the new information which it has received and shall again classify the registrant in the same manner as if he had never before been classified. Such classification shall be and have the effect of a new and original classification even though the registrant is again placed in the class that he was in before his classification was reopened.

§ 625.12 Notice of action when classification considered anew. When the local board reopens the registrant's classification, it shall, as soon as practicable after it has again classified the registrant, mail notice thereof on Notice of Classification (SSS Form No. 110) to the registrant and on Classification Advice (SSS Form No. 111) to the persons entitled to receive such notice or advice on an original classification under the provisions of § 623.4 of this chapter.

§ 625.13 Right of appeal following reopening of classification. Each such classification shall be followed by the same right of appearance before the local board and the same right of appeal as in the case of an original classification.

§ 625.14 Order to report for induction to be canceled when classification reopened. When the local board has reopened the classification of a registrant, it shall cancel any Order to Report for Induction (SSS Form No. 252) which may have been issued to the registrant. If, after the registrant's classification is reopened, he is classified anew into a class available for service, he shall be ordered to report for induction in the usual manner.

§ 626.1 Appeal by Director and State Director. (a) Either the Director of Selective Service or the State Director of Selective Service as to local boards in his State may appeal from any determination of a local board.

(b) Either the State Director of Selective Service or the Director of Selective Service may take such an appeal at any time.

§ 626.2 Appeal by registrant and others. (a) The registrant, any person who claims to be a dependent of the registrant, any person who prior to the classification appealed from filed a written request for the current occupational deferment of the registrant, or the government appeal agent may appeal to an appeal board from any classification of a registrant by the local board except that no such person may appeal from
