OFFICE OF PERSONNEL 

MANAGEMENT 

Submission for OMB Review; 

Comment Request for the Review of a 

Revised Information Collection: RI 38–

31

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 review of a revised 

information collection. RI 38–31, We 

Need More Information About Your 

Missing Payment, is sent in response to 

a notification by an individual of the 

loss or non-receipt of a payment from 

the Civil Service Retirement and 

Disability Fund. The form requests the 

information needed to enable OPM to 

trace and/or reissue payment. Missing 

payments may also be reported to OPM 

by a telephone call. 

Approximately 8,000 reports of 

missing payments are processed each 

year. Of these, we estimate that 7,800 

are reports of missing checks. 

Approximately 200 reports of missing 

checks are reported using RI 38–31 and 

7,600 are reported by telephone. A 

response time of ten minutes per form 

reporting a missing check is estimated; 

the same amount of time is needed to 

report the missing checks or electronic 

funds transfer (EFT) payments using the 

telephone. The annual burden for 

reporting missing checks is 1,300 hours. 

The remaining 200 reports relate to EFT 

payments. No missing EFT payments 

are reported using RI 38–31.The annual 

burden for reporting missing EFT 

payments is 33 hours. The total burden 

is 1,333 hours.
