SECTION 1. ELIGIBILITY TO APPLY FOR A SURVIVOR ANNUITY.

    (a) In General.--Notwithstanding clause (iv) of section 4(b)(1)(B) 
of the Civil Service Retirement Spouse Equity Act of 1984 (Public Law 
98-615; 5 U.S.C. 8341 note), any claim filed by, or on behalf of, Emma 
W. Todd, of Norfolk, Virginia, for a survivor annuity under such 
section 4(b)(1)(B) as the former spouse of William C. Wynne shall, if 
received by the Office of Personnel Management within 12 months after 
the date of the enactment of this Act, be treated as if it had been 
timely filed.
    (b) Prospective Effect.--Any survivor annuity payable as a result 
of an application filed in accordance with subsection (a) shall 
commence on the first day of the second month beginning after the date 
on which such application is received by the Office of Personnel

application had been filed on May 7, 1989. No amount shall be payable 
as a result of such application for any period before the first day of 
such second month.
