Are you talking about PRIA or FOIA? If the employer requests your entire file from the FAA through FOIA, then it will contain everything the FAA has on you. As I said in an earlier post, when I checked my file the FAA had everything done on my behalf since 1987. Every written test, temporary certificate, and pink slip was in there, and they were all older than 2006.
