Proposed Information Collection; 

Request for Comments on an Existing 

Information Collection: 

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) intends to submit to 

the Office of Management and Budget 

(OMB) a request for comments on an 

existing information collection. This 

information collection, ‘‘Verification of 

Who is Getting Payments’’ (OMB 

Control No. 3206–0197: Form RI 38– 

107), is designed for use when OPM, for 

any reason, must verify that the entitled 

person is indeed receiving the monies 

payable. Failure to collect this 

information would cause OPM to pay 

monies absent the assurance of a correct 

payee. 

Comments are particularly invited on: 

Whether this collection of information 

is necessary for the proper performance 

of functions of the Office of Personnel 

Management, and whether it will have 

practical utility; whether our estimate of 

the public burden of this collection of 

information is accurate, and based on 

valid assumptions and methodology; 

and ways in which we can minimize the 

burden of the collection of information 

on those who are to respond, through 

the use of appropriate technological 

collection techniques or other forms of 

information technology. 

There are approximately 25,400 

changes per year. Each form takes 

approximately 10 minutes to complete. 

The annual estimated burden is 4,234 

hours.
