01-23301. Submission for OMB Review; Comment Request for Reclearance of a Revised Information Collection: RI 20-1

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) has submitted to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) a request for reclearance of a revised information collection. Annuitants who were entitled to minimum annuity before the repeal of the minimum annuity provisions on February 27, 1986, continue to be paid minimum annuity. OPM uses RI 20-1, Minimum Annuity Application, to determine if an annuitant qualifies for minimum annuity.

Approximately 50 RI 20-1 forms will be completed annually. We estimate it takes approximately 15 minutes to complete the form. The annual burden is 13 hours.
