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 clearance of a revised information collection. This information collection, “Financial Resources Questionnaire” (OMB Control No. 3206-0167; Forms RI 34-1 and RI 34-17), collects detailed financial information for use by OPM to determine whether to agree to a waiver, compromise, or adjustment of the collection of erroneous payments from the Civil Service Retirement and Disability Fund. “Notice of Amount Due Because Of Annuity Overpayment” (OMB Control No. 3206-0167; forms RI 34-3 and RI 34-19), informs the annuitant about the overpayment and collects information from the annuitant about how repayment will be made.

Approximately 450 RI 34-1 and 70 RI 34-17 forms are completed annually. Approximately 1,351 RI 34-3 and 210 RI 34-19 forms are completed annually. Each form takes approximately 60 minutes to complete. The annual estimated burden is 450 hours (RI 34-1), 70 hours (RI 34-17), 1,351 hours (RI 34-3) and 210 hours (RI 34-19) respectively. The total annual estimated burden is 2,081 hours.
