OFFICE OF PERSONNEL MANAGEMENT

 
Proposed Collection; Comment Request for Review of a Revised 
Information Collection: Forms RI 20-7 and RI 30-3

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 (OMB) a request for review of a revised 
information collection. RI 20-7, Representative Payee Application, is 
used by the Civil Service Retirement System (CSRS) and the Federal 
Employees Retirement System (FERS) to collect information from persons 
applying to be fiduciaries for annuitants or survivor annuitants who 
appear to be incapable of handling their own funds or for minor 
children. RI 30-3, Information Necessary for a Competency 
Determination, collects medical information regarding the annuitant's 
competency for OPM's use in evaluating the annuitant's condition.
    Comments are particularly invited on: whether this collection of 
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 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.
    We estimate 12,480 RI 20-7 forms are completed annually. The form 
requires approximately 30 minutes for completion. The annual burden is 
6,240 hours.
    Approximately 250 RI 30-3 forms will be completed annually. Each 
form requires approximately 1 hour for completion. The annual burden is 
250 hours. The total annual burden is 6,490.

(202) 606-8358, FAX (202) 418-3251 or via e-mail to
