SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: As required by the Paperwork Reduction Act

Register on May 5, 2017, at 82 FR 21274, allowing for a 60-day public 
comment period. No comments were received for this collection. The 
purpose of this notice is to allow an additional 30 days for public 
comments. The Office of Management and Budget is particularly 
interested in comments that:
    1. Evaluate whether the proposed collection of information is 
necessary for the proper performance of the functions of the agency, 
including whether the information will have practical utility;
    2. Evaluate the accuracy of the agency's estimate of the burden of 
the proposed collection of information, including the validity of the 
methodology and assumptions used;
    3. Enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to 
be collected; and
    4. Minimize the burden of the collection of information on those 
who are to respond, including through the use of appropriate automated, 
electronic, mechanical, or other technological collection techniques or 
other forms of information technology, e.g., permitting electronic 
submissions of responses.

is used to determine whether a child is unmarried and a full-time 
student in a recognized school. OPM must determine this in order to pay 
survivor annuity benefits to children who are age 18 or older under 
title 5, U.S. C. Sections 8341(A)(4) and Chapter 84, Section 8441 
(4)(C).
