Proposed Collection: Comment Request for Review of an Expiring Information Collection: Standard Form 1153
AGENCY:
Office of Personnel Management.
ACTION:
Notice.
SUMMARY:
In accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (Public Law 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 a request for review of an expiring information collection. Standard Form 1153, Claim for Unpaid Compensation of Deceased Civilian Employee is used to collect information from individuals, who have been designated as beneficiaries of the unpaid compensation of a deceased Federal employee or who believe that their relationship to the deceased entitles them to receive the unpaid compensation of a deceased Federal employee. OPM needs this information in order to adjudicate the claim and properly assign a deceased Federal employee's unpaid compensation to the appropriate individual(s).
Approximately 3,000 SF 1153 forms are submitted annually. It takes approximately 15 minutes to complete the form. The annual estimated burden is 750 hours.
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 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 use of the appropriate technological collection techniques or other forms of information technology.
