time of his/her death or separation from Federal Service. SF 3104A, 
Survivor Supplement (FERS) [attached to the SF 3104] requests 
information from the survivor which is used by OPM to determine 
entitlement to a survivor annuity supplement (supplementary annuity). 
SF 3104B, Documentation and Elections in Support of Application for 
Death Benefits when Deceased was an Employee at the Time of Death, is 
used by applicants for death benefits under FERS if the deceased was a 
Federal employee at the time of death.
    It is estimated that approximately 9,607 SF 3104s will be processed 
annually. This form requires approximately 60 minutes to complete. An 
annual burden of 9,607 hours is estimated. Approximately 3,759 SF 
3104Bs are expected to be processed annually. It is estimated that the 
form requires approximately 60 minutes to complete. An annual burden of
