RAILROAD RETIREMENT BOARD 

Agency Forms Submitted for OMB 

Review, Request for Comments 

Summary: In accordance with the 

Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 

U.S.C. chapter 35), the Railroad 

Retirement Board (RRB) is forwarding 

an Information Collection Request (ICR) 

to the Office of Information and 

Regulatory Affairs (OIRA), Office of 

Management and Budget (OMB). Our 

ICR describes the information we seek 

to collect from the public. Review and 

approval by OIRA ensures that we 

impose appropriate paperwork burdens. 

The RRB invites comments on the 

proposed collections of information to 

determine (1) the practical utility of the 

collections; (2) the accuracy of the 

estimated burden of the collections; (3) 

ways to enhance the quality, utility, and 

clarity of the information that is the 

subject of collection; and (4) ways to 

minimize the burden of collections on 

respondents, including the use of 

automated collection techniques or 

other forms of information technology. 

Comments to the RRB or OIRA must 

contain the OMB control number of the 

ICR. For proper consideration of your 

comments, it is best if the RRB and 

OIRA receive them within 30 days of 

the publication date. 

Title and purpose of information 

collection: Statement Regarding 

Contributions and Support of Children; 

OMB 3220–0195. 

Section 2(d)(4) of the Railroad 

Retirement Act (RRA) (45 U.S.C. 231a), 

provides, in part, that a child is deemed 

dependent if the conditions set forth in 

Section 202(d)(3), (4) and (9) of the 

Social Security Act are met. Section 

202(d)(4) of the Social Security Act, as 

amended by Public Law 104–121, 

requires as a condition of dependency, 

that a child receives one-half of his or 

her support from the stepparent. This 

dependency impacts upon the 

entitlement of a spouse or survivor of an 

employee whose entitlement is based 

upon having a stepchild of the 

employee in care, or on an individual 

seeking a child’s annuity as a stepchild 

of an employee. Therefore, depending 

on the employee for at least one-half 

support is a condition affecting 

eligibility for increasing an employee or 

spouse annuity under the social security 

overall minimum provisions on the 

basis of the presence of a dependent 

child, the employee’s natural child in 

limited situations, adopted children, 

stepchildren, grandchildren, stepgrandchildren and equitably adopted 

children. The regulations outlining 

child support and dependency 

requirements are prescribed in 20 CFR 

222.50–57. 

In order to correctly determine if an 

applicant is entitled to a child’s annuity 

based on actual dependency, the RRB 

uses Form G–139, Statement Regarding 

Contributions and Support of Children, 

to obtain financial information needed 

to make a comparison between the 

amount of support received from the 

railroad employee and the amount 

received from other sources. Completion 

is required to obtain a benefit. One 

response is required of each respondent. 

Previous Requests for Comments: The 

RRB has already published the initial 

60-day notice (89 FR 107181 on 

December 31, 2024) required by 44 

U.S.C. 3506(c)(2). That request elicited 

no comments. 

Information Collection Request (ICR) 

Title: Statement Regarding 

Contributions and Support of Children. 

OMB Control Number: 3220–0195. 

Form(s) submitted: G–139. 

Type of request: Revision of a 

currently approved collection of 

information. 

Affected public: Individuals or 

Households. 

Abstract: Dependency on the 

employee for at least one-half support is 

a condition affecting eligibility for 

increasing an employee or spouse 

annuity under the social security overall 

minimum provisions on the basis of the 

presence of a dependent child, the 

employee’s natural child in limited 

situations, adopted children, 

stepchildren, grandchildren and stepgrandchildren. The information 

collected solicits financial information 

needed to determine entitlement to a 

child’s annuity based on actual 

dependency. 

Changes proposed: The RRB proposes 

minor editorial changes to Form G–139 

to change the example dates under 

Section 1 ‘‘General Instructions’’ to 

January 1, 2024. 

The burden estimate for the ICR is as 

follows:
