RAILROAD RETIREMENT BOARD

Proposed Collection; Comment

Request

SUMMARY: In accordance with the

requirement of Section 3506(c)(2)(A) of

the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995

which provides opportunity for public

comment on new or revised data

collections, the Railroad Retirement

Board (RRB) will publish periodic

summaries of proposed data collections.

Comments are invited on: (a) Whether

the proposed information collection is

necessary for the proper performance of

the functions of the agency, including

whether the information has practical

utility; (b) the accuracy of the RRB’s

estimate of the burden of the collection

of the information; (c) ways to enhance

the quality, utility, and clarity of the

information to be collected; and (d)

ways to minimize the burden related to

the collection of information on

respondents, including the use of

automated collection techniques or

other forms of information technology.

Title and Purpose of information

collection:

Evidence for Application of Overall

Minimum: OMB 3220–0083.

Under Section 3(f)(3) of the Railroad

Retirement Act (RRA), the total monthly

benefits payable to a railroad employee

and his/her family are guaranteed to be

no less than the amount which would

be payable if the employee’s railroad

service had been covered by the Social

Security Act. The Social Security

Overall Minimum Guarantee is

prescribed in 20 CFR 229. To administer

this provision, the Railroad Retirement

Board (RRB) requires information about

a retired employee’s spouse and

child(ren) who would not be eligible for

benefits under the RRA but would be

eligible for benefits under the Social

Security Act if the employee’s railroad

service had been covered by that Act.

The RRB obtains the required

information by the use of forms G–319

(Statement Regarding Family and

Earnings for Special Guaranty

Computation) and G–320 (Statement by

Employee Annuitant Regarding Student

Age 18–19). One form is completed by

each respondent. The RRB proposes no

changes to Form G–319 or Form G–320.

Estimate of Annual Respondent Burden

burden is as follows:
