OFFICE OF PERSONNEL MANAGEMENT

[OMB Control No. 3206-0033; Form RI 25-7]

 
Proposed Information Collection; Request for Comments on 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 (OMB) a request for comments on a revised 
information collection. This information collection Marital Status 
Certification Survey (OMB Control No. 3206-0033; Form RI 25-7), is used 
to determine whether widows, widowers, and former spouses receiving 
survivor annuities from OPM have remarried before reaching age 55 and, 
thus, are no longer eligible for benefits.
    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 2,500 forms are completed annually. Each form takes 
approximately 15 minutes to complete; the annual estimated burden is 
625 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.

Assistant Director, Retirement Services Program, Center for Retirement
