Claim for Unpaid Compensation for Deceased Civilian Employee. As 
required by the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, as amended by the

2022. This process is conducted in accordance with 5 CFR 1320.1.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 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.
    Standard Form 1153, Claim for Unpaid Compensation for 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 the 
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).
