SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 
    Title: Request for Payment of Federal Benefit by Check, EFT Waiver 
Form.
    OMB Number: 1530-0019 (Previously approved as 1510-0077 as a 
collection conducted by Department of the Treasury/Financial Management 
Service.) Transfer of OMB Control Number: The Financial Management 
Service (FMS) and the Bureau of Public Debt (BPD) have consolidated to 
become the Bureau of the Fiscal Service (Fiscal Service). Information 
collection requests previously held separately by BPD and FMS will now 
be identified by a 1530 prefix, designating Fiscal Service.
    Form Number: FMS Form 1201W, FMS Form 1201W-DFAS, FMS Form 1201W 
(SP).
    Abstract: 31 CFR part 208 requires that all Federal non-tax 
payments be made by electronic funds transfer (EFT). This form is used 
to collect information from individuals requesting a waiver from the 
EFT requirement because of a mental impairment and/or who live in a 
remote geographic location that does not support the use of EFT. These 
individuals may continue to receive payment by check. However, 31 CFR 
part 208 requires individuals requesting one of these waiver conditions 
to submit a written justification that is notarized by a notary public. 
In order to assist individuals with this submission, Treasury has 
prepared waiver forms in order to collect all necessary information.
    Current Actions: Extension of a currently approved collection.
    Type of Review: Regular.
    Affected Public: Individuals or Households.
    Estimated Number of Respondents: 3,250.
    Estimated Time per Respondent: 20 minutes.
    Estimated Total Annual Burden Hours: 1,083.
    Request for Comments: Comments submitted in response to this notice 
will be summarized and/or included in the request for OMB approval. All 
comments will become a matter of public record. Comments are invited 
on: (a) Whether the collection of information is necessary for the 
proper performance of the functions of the agency, including whether 
the information shall have practical utility; (b) the accuracy of the 
agency's estimate of the burden of the collection of information; (c) 
ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to 
be collected; (d) ways to minimize the burden of the collection of 
information on respondents, including through the use of automated 
collection techniques or other forms of information technology; and (e) 
estimates of capital or start-up costs and costs of operation, 
maintenance, and purchase of services to provide information.

    Dated: April 10, 2015.

Bureau Clearance Officer.
