    Title; Associated Form; and OMB Number: Certificate for Child 
Annuitant; DD Form 2828; OMB Control Number 0730-0011.
    Needs and Uses: The information collection requirement is necessary 
to support an incapacitation occurring prior to age 18. The form 
provides the authority for the DFAS to establish and pay a Retired 
Serviceman's Family Protection Plan (RSFPP) or Survivor Benefit Plan 
(SBP) annuity to the incapacitated individual.
    Affected Public: Individuals and households.
    Annual Burden Hours: 480.
    Number of Respondents: 240.
    Responses per Respondent: 1.
    Annual Responses: 240.
    Average Burden per Response: 2 hours.
    Frequency: On occasion.
    The form will be used by the DFAS in order to establish and start 
the annuity for a potential child annuitant. When the form is 
completed, it will serve as a medical report to substantiate a child's 
incapacity. The law requires that an unmarried child who is 
incapacitated must provide a current certified medical report. When the 
incapacity is not permanent, a medical certification must be received 
by DFAS every two years in order for the child to continue receiving 
annuity payments.
