If you were born a male after December 31, 1959, and are at least 18 years of age, civil service employment law (5 U.S.C. 3328) requires that you must be registered with the Selective Service System, unless you meet certain exemptions under Selective Service law. If you are required to register but knowingly and willfully fail to do so, you are ineligible for appointment by executive agencies of the federal government. If you are unsure of your registration status, or are seeking further details on exemptions to the registration requirement, you can check the Selective Service System website at: http://www.sss.gov.
