OFFICE OF PERSONNEL MANAGEMENT


 
Proposed Collection; Comment Request for Review of a Revised 
Information Collection: RI 25-15


AGENCY: Office of Personnel Management.


ACTION: Notice.


-----------------------------------------------------------------------


SUMMARY: In accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (Public 
Law 104-13, May 22, 1995 and 5 CFR 1320), this notice announces that 
the Office of Personnel Management (OPM) intends to submit to the 
Office of Management and Budget (OMB) a request for review of a revised 
information collection. RI 25-15, Notice of Change in Student's Status, 
is used to collect sufficient information from adult children of 
deceased Federal employees or annuitants to assure that the child 
continues to be eligible for payments from OPM.
    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 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 use of the appropriate 
technological collection techniques or other forms of information 
technology.


    Approximately 2,500 certifications are processed annually. Each 
form takes approximately 30 minutes to complete. The annual estimated 
burden is 1,250 hours.
    For copies of this proposal, contact Mary Beth Smith-Toomey on 
(202) 606-8358, FAX (202) 418-3251 or E-mail to mbtoomey@opm.gov. 
Please include your mailing address with your request.

days from the date of this publication.
