Final Rules Relating to Non-Public Information, 

June 27, 2018, Attachment A at 19–22 (Order No. 

4679). 

SUMMARY: The Office of Personnel 

Management (OPM), Retirement 

Services, offers the general public and 

other Federal agencies the opportunity 

to comment on the review of the 

following expiring information 

collection request (ICR) with change: 

Civil Service Retirement System 

Survivor Annuitant Express Pay 

Application for Death Benefits, RI 25– 

51. 

DATES: Comments are encouraged and 

will be accepted until November 24, 

2023. 

ADDRESSES: You may submit comments, 

identified by docket number and title, 

by the following method: 

• Federal Rulemaking Portal: https:// 

www.regulations.gov. Follow the 

instructions for submitting comments. 

All submissions received must 

include the agency name and docket 

number for this document. The general 

policy for comments and other 

submissions from members of the public 

is to make these submissions available 

for public viewing at https://

www.regulations.gov as they are 

received without change, including any 

personal identifiers or contact 

information. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: A 

copy of this ICR with applicable 

supporting documentation, may be 

obtained by contacting the Retirement 

Services Publications Team, Office of 

Personnel Management, 1900 E Street 

NW, Room 3316–L, Washington, DC 

20415, Attention: Cyrus S. Benson, or 

sent by email to Cyrus.Benson@opm.gov 

or faxed to (202) 606–0910 or reached 

via telephone at (202) 936–0401. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Eligible 

recipients of Civil Service Retirement 

System (CSRS) survivor benefits 

generally must apply for those benefits 

using Standard Form (SF) 2800, 

Application for Death Benefits. In a 

defined set of circumstances, a current 

surviving spouse of a deceased 

annuitant of the CSRS who elected a 

survivor annuity benefit for the 

surviving spouse may be eligible for 

Express Pay. OPM still requires a signed 

application and certified copy of the 

death certificate. Instead of completing 

the SF 2800, the survivor applies for the 

benefit by completing the form RI 25– 

51, Civil Service Retirement System 

Survivor Annuitant Express Pay 

Application for Death Benefits, because 

of the likelihood these surviving 

spouses are entitled to survivor annuity 

benefits. Use of this form allows OPM 

to expedite processing and to limit 

possible financial hardship that a delay 

in payment might otherwise cause 

affected surviving spouses. 

Minor changes were made to the form 

and instructions to provide respondents 

clear instructions and to update contact 

information. No changes are being made 

to the approved burden hours for this 

information collection. 

As required by the Paperwork 

Reduction Act of 1995 (Pub. L. 104–13) 

as amended (44 U.S.C. chapter 35), OPM 

is soliciting comments for this 

collection (OMB No. 3206–0233). OPM 

is particularly interested in comments 

that: 

1. Evaluate whether the proposed 

collection of information is necessary 

for the proper performance of functions 

of the agency, including whether the 

information will have practical utility; 

2. Evaluate the accuracy of the 

agency’s estimate of the burden of the 

proposed collection of information, 

including the validity of the 

methodology and assumptions used; 

3. Enhance the quality, utility, and 

clarity of the information to be 

collected; and 

4. Minimize the burden of the 

collection of information on those who 

are to respond, including through the 

use of appropriate automated, 

electronic, mechanical, or other 

technological collection techniques or 

other forms of information technology, 

e.g., permitting electronic submissions 

of responses.
