OFFICE OF PERSONNEL MANAGEMENT

 
Submission for OMB Review: Comment Request for Review of an 
Expiring Information Collection: Standard Form 1153

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 a request for review of an expired information collection. 
Standard Form 1153, Claim for Unpaid Compensation of Deceased Civilian 
Employee, is used to collect information from individuals, who have 
been designated as beneficiaries of the unpaid compensation of a 
deceased Federal employee or who believe that their relationship to the 
deceased entitles them to receive the unpaid compensation of a deceased 
Federal employee. OPM needs this information in order to adjudicate the 
claim and properly assign a deceased Federal employee's unpaid 
compensation to the appropriate individual(s).
    We received no comments on our 60-day notice on Standard Form 1153, 
published in the Federal Register on June 15, 2001.
    Approximately 3,000 SF 1153 forms are submitted annually. It takes 
approximately 15 minutes to complete the form. The annual estimated 
burden is 750 hours.
