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: Continuing Disability Report; 

OMB 3220–0187. Under Section 2 of the 

Railroad Retirement Act, an annuity is 

not payable or is reduced for any month 

in which the annuitant works for a 

railroad or earns more than prescribed 

dollar amounts from either non-railroad 

employment or self-employment. 

Certain types of work may indicate an 

annuitant’s recovery from disability. 

The provisions relating to the reduction 

or non-payment of an annuity by reason 

of work, and an annuitant’s recovery 

from disability for work, are prescribed 

in 20 CFR 220.17–220.20. The RRB 

conducts continuing disability reviews 

(CDR) to determine whether an 

annuitant continues to meet the 

disability requirements of the law. 

Provisions relating to when and how 

often the RRB conducts CDR’s are 

prescribed in 20 CFR 220.186. 

Form G–254, Continuing Disability 

Report, is used by the RRB to develop 

information for a CDR determination, 

including a determination prompted by 

a report of work, return to railroad 

service, allegation of medical 

improvement, or a routine disability 

review call-up. The RRB proposes the 

following changes: 

• Revise current Item 8 to ask for the 

response in month and year format 

since the form may cover multiple 

years. 

• Revise current Item 12a to include 

the spouse as a source of employment. 

• Revise current Item 15k to show the 

impact the disability has had on their 

business by asking if the annuitant has 

had to reduce or restrict the number of 

their clients or customers. 

• Revise current Items 17a and 17b to 

include asking if the annuitant has 

made supervisory (as well as 

managerial) decisions. 

• Renumber current Item 31 to Item 

31a. 

• Create New Item 31b, using a Yes/ 

No format, to identify the annuitant who 

requires an assistive device such as a 

cane, oxygen, etc. 

• Create New Item 31c to identify the 

assistive device(s). 

• Other minor editorial changes. 

Form G–254a, Continuing Disability 

Update Report, is used to help identify 

a disability annuitant whose work 

activity and/or recent medical history 

warrants completion of Form G–254 for 

a more extensive review. The RRB 

proposes adding a request for the social 

security number of the applicant who is 

not the employee to resolve any 

ambiguous issues. 

Completion is required to retain a 

benefit. One response is requested of 

each respondent to Forms G–254 and G– 

254a.
