SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: RI 38-128 is primarily used by OPM to give 
recent retirees the opportunity to waive Direct Deposit of their 
annuity payments. The form is sent only if the separating agency did 
not give the retiring employee this election opportunity. This form may 
also be used to enroll in Direct Deposit, which was its primary use 
before Public Law 104-134 was passed. This law requires OPM to make all 
recurring benefits payments electronically to beneficiaries who live 
where Direct Deposit is available. Beneficiaries who do not enroll in 
the Direct Deposit Program will be enrolled in Direct Express.
