OFFICE OF PERSONNEL MANAGEMENT

 
Proposed Collection; Comment Request for Review of a Revised 
Information Collection: RI 25-37

AGENCY: Office of Personnel Management.

ACTION: Notice.

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

SUMMARY: In accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (Public 
Law 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 25-37, Evidence to Prove Dependency of a Child, is 
designed to collect sufficient information for OPM to determine whether 
the surviving child of a deceased federal employee is eligible to 
receive benefits as a dependent child.
    Comments are particularly invited on: Whether this collection of 
information is necessary for the proper performance of functions of 
OPM, and whether it will have practical utility; whether our estimate 
of the public burden of this collection 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 use of the appropriate technological collection techniques or 
other forms of information technology.
    Approximately 250 forms are completed annually. We estimate it 
takes approximately 60 minutes to assemble the needed documentation. 
The annual estimated burden is 250 hours.
    For copies of this proposal, contact Mary Beth Smith-Toomey on 
(202) 606-8358, FAX (202) 418-3251 or via e-mail to mbtoomey@opm.gov. 
Please include a mailing address with your request.

DATES: Comments on this proposal should be received within 60 calendar 
days from the date of this publication.
