OFFICE OF PERSONNEL MANAGEMENT

[RI 92-19]

 
Proposed Collection; Comment Request for Review of a Revised 
Information Collection

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) intends to submit to the Office of 
Management and Budget a request for review of a revised information 
collection. RI 92-19, Application for Deferred or Postponed Retirement: 
Federal Employees Retirement System (FERS), is used by separated 
employees to apply for either a deferred or a postponed FERS annuity 
benefit.
    Comments are particularly invited on: whether this information is 
necessary for the proper performance of functions of the Office of 
Personnel Management, and whether it will have practical utility; 
whether our estimate of the

[[Page 51807]]

public burden of this collection of information is accurate, and based 
on valid assumptions and methodology; and ways in which we can minimize 
the burden of the collection of information on those who are to 
respond, through the use of appropriate technological collection 
techniques or other forms of information technology.
    Approximately 1,272 forms are completed annually. We estimate it 
takes approximately 60 minutes to complete the form. The annual 
estimated burden is 1,272 hours.
    For copies of this proposal, contact Mary Beth Smith-Toomey on 
(202) 606-8358, or E-mail to mbtoomey@opm.gov.

DATES: Comments on this proposal should be received on or before
