Our Guarantee
The Office of Personnel Management (OPM) requires all CFC applicants to pay a non-refundable fee at the time of application. If we recommend your organization to OPM for admission to the CFC and OPM ultimately rejects your application, we will refund the initial OPM fee. The risk is ours.
