Title and Purpose of Information

Collection

Employer’s Deemed Service Month

Questionnaire; OMB 3220–0156

Section 3(i) of the Railroad Retirement

Act (RRA), as amended by Pub. L. 98–

76, provides that the Railroad

Retirement Board (RRB), under certain

circumstances, may deem additional

months of service in cases where an

employee does not actually work in

every month of the year, provided the

employee satisfies certain eligibility

requirements, including the existence of

an employment relation between the

employee and his or her employer. The

procedures pertaining to the deeming of

additional months of service are found

in the RRB’s regulations at 20 CFR part

210, Creditable Railroad Service.

The RRB utilizes Form GL–99,

Employers Deemed Service Month

Questionnaire, to obtain service and

compensation information from railroad

employers needed to determine if an

employee can be credited with

additional deemed months of railroad

service. Completion is mandatory. One

response is required for each RRB

inquiry.

No changes are proposed to Form GL–

99. The completion time for Form GL–

99 is estimated at 2 minutes per

response. The RRB estimates that

approximately 4,000 response are

received annually.
