OFFICE OF PERSONNEL MANAGEMENT

[OMB Control No. 3206-0099; Form RI 25-41]

 
Proposed Collection; Request for Comment Extension of a Currently 
Approved 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 (OMB) a request for extension of a currently 
approved information collection. ``This information collection, Initial 
Certification of Full-Time School Attendance'' (OMB Control No. 3206-
0099; Form RI 25-41), is used to determine whether a child is unmarried 
and a full-time student in a recognized school. OPM must determine this 
in order to pay survivor annuity benefits to children who are age 18 or 
older.
    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.
    Approximately 1,200 RI 25-41 forms are completed annually. It takes 
approximately 90 minutes to complete the form. The annual burden is 
1,800 hours.
    For copies of this proposal, contact Cyrus S. Benson on (202) 606-
4808, FAX (202) 606-0910 or via E-mail to Cyrus.Benson@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.
