OFFICE OF PERSONNEL MANAGEMENT


 
Submission for OMB Review; Comment Request for Reclearance of a 
Revised Information Collection: RI 98-7


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) has submitted to the Office of Management 
and Budget (OMB) a request for reclearance of a revised information 
collection. RI 98-7, We Need Important Information About Your 
Eligibility for Social Security Disability Benefits, is used by OPM to 
verify receipt of Social Security Administration (SSA) disability 
benefits, to lessen or avoid overpayment to Federal Employees 
Retirement System (FERS) disability retirees. It notifies the annuitant 
of the responsibility to notify OPM if SSA benefits begin and the 
overpayment that will occur with the receipt of both benefits.
    Approximately 3,000 RI 98-7 forms will be completed annually. We 
estimate it takes approximately 5 minutes to complete the form. The 
annual burden is 250 hours.
    For copies of this proposal, contact Mary Beth Smith-Toomey on 
(202) 606-8358, FAX (202) 418-3251 or Email to mbtoomey@opm.gov. Please
