-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: In compliance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, the 
Office of the Under Secretary of Defense (Personnel and Readiness) 
announces a proposed public information collection and seeks public 
comment on the provisions thereof. Comments are invited on: (a) Whether 
the proposed 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 proposed information collection; 
(c) ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the 
information to be collected; and (d) ways to minimize the burden of the 
information collection on respondents, including through the use of 
automated collection techniques or other forms of information 
technology.

DATES: Consideration will be given to all comments received by December 
14, 2015.

title, by any of the following methods:

4000, or call at (703) 695-3176.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 
    Title; Associated Form; and OMB Number: Survivor Benefit Plan 
(SBP)/Reserve Component (RC) SBP Request for Deemed Election; DD Form 
2656-10, OMB Control Number 0704-0448.
    Needs and Uses: The information collection requirement is necessary 
to properly identify the former spouse who is eligible to request a 
deemed SBP election on behalf of the member. Since a Uniformed Services 
member may have more than one former spouse, the requested information 
will serve to identify the correct former spouse.
    Affected Public: Individuals or Households.
    Annual Burden Hours: 400.
    Number of Respondents: 1,200.
    Responses per Respondent: 1.
    Annual Responses: 1,200.
    Average Burden per Response: 20 minutes.
    Frequency: On occasion.
    A former spouse who has been awarded coverage under the Survivor 
Benefit Plan either by court order or written agreement, may, within 
one year of such court order or written agreement, submit a request to 
have an election for such coverage deemed on behalf of the member. Such 
requests will be made by submitting the proposed form and a copy of the 
court order, regular on its face, which requires such election or 
incorporates, ratifies, or approves the written agreement of such 
person; or a statement from the clerk of the court (or other 
appropriate official) that such agreement has been filed with the court 
in accordance with applicable state law. A former spouse is not 
required to submit a request for a deemed election. However, if a 
request for deemed election is not submitted within the one year period 
described above and the members fail to elect former spouse SBP 
coverage, no former spouse coverage will be provided. The proposed form 
DD Form 2656-10, ``Survivor Benefit Plan (SBP)/Reserve Component (RC) 
SBP Request for Deemed Election,'' will become the prescribed form 
required for submitting such requests.
