OFFICE OF PERSONNEL MANAGEMENT


Proposed Collection; Comment Request for Review of an Information 
Collection: Forms RI 38-117, 38-118, and RI 37-22

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 a request for review of an information 
collection. RI 38-117, Rollover Election, is used to collect 
information from each payee affected by a change in the tax code (Pub. 
L. 102-318) so that OPM can make payment in accordance with the wishes 
of the payee. RI 38-118, Rollover Information, explains the election. 
RI 37-22, Special Tax Notice Regarding Rollovers, provides more 
detailed information.
    Comments are particularly invited on: whether this information is 
necessary for the proper performance of functions of OPM, 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.
    Approximately 6,000 RI 38-118 forms will be completed annually. We 
estimate it takes approximately 30 minutes to complete the form. The 
annual burden is 3,000 hours.
    For copies of this proposal, contact Mary Beth Smith-Toomey on 
(202) 606-2150, or E-mail to [email protected].

DATES: Comments on this proposal should be received on or before 
January 8, 2001.
