Submission for OMB Review; Comment Request for the Review of a 
Revised Information Collection: SF 2809

AGENCY: Office of Personnel Management.

ACTION: Notice.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: In accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (Pub. 
L. 104-13, May 22, 1995), this notice announces that the Office of 
Personnel Management (OPM) has submitted to the Office of Management 
and Budget (OMB) a request for the review of a revised information 
collection. SF 2809, Health Benefits Election Form, is used by Federal 
employees, annuitants other than those under the Civil Service 
Retirement System (CSRS) and the Federal Employees Retirement System 
(FERS) [including individuals receiving benefits from the Office of 
Workers' Compensation Programs], former spouses eligible for benefits 
under the Spouse Equity Act of 1984, and separated employees and former 
dependents eligible to enroll under the Temporary Continuation of 
Coverage provisions of the FEHB law (5 U.S.C. 8905a). A different form 
(OPM 2809) is used by CSRS and FERS annuitants whose health benefit 
enrollments are administered by OPM's Retirement Services Program.
    Approximately 18,000 SF 2809 forms are completed annually. Each 
form takes approximately 30 minutes to complete. The annual estimated 
burden is 9,000 hours.
