Which Admin Hold Code indicates that the person is under investigation by AFOSI or SFS?

• A. Code 17
• B. Code 15
• C. Code 14
• D. Code 12

Answer: (A)

Admin hold codes are used to flag why a person is held in an administrative status while actions are ongoing. When AFOSI or Security Forces is conducting an investigation, the hold code designated for that situation is the one that communicates that an investigation is active and that the member’s duties may be restricted accordingly. This code serves to alert supervisors and security personnel to preserve the investigation’s integrity and prevent interference, while also guiding the member about the restrictiveness of their duties during the inquiry. Other administrative holds exist for different contexts, but they do not indicate an AFOSI or SFS investigation.
