Massachusetts Request For Record Information (RFR) is the process by which individuals or entities can request access to public records held by Massachusetts state agencies and municipalities. This includes records related to businesses, individuals, and government agencies. RFR provides individuals with the right to access public records in accordance with the Massachusetts Public Records Law. There are two main types of Massachusetts Request For Record Information: 1. Standard RFR: This type of RFR is available for most public records, including those related to businesses, individuals, and government agencies. It can be used to obtain records such as birth certificates, marriage certificates, court documents, tax records, and more. 2. Special RFR: This type of RFR is needed for access to certain records that are not available through standard RFR. This includes records related to sensitive topics such as criminal records or medical records. Special RFR must be submitted in person or via mail, and the requestor must provide proof of identity and a valid authorization form.
