[Federal Register Volume 81, Number 205 (Monday, October 24, 2016)] [Notices] [Pages 73156-73157] From the Federal Register Online [www.thefederalregister.org] [FR Doc No: 2016-25673] ======================================================================= ----------------------------------------------------------------------- RAILROAD RETIREMENT BOARD Agency Forms Submitted for OMB Review, Request for Comments Summary: In accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. Chapter 35), the Railroad Retirement Board (RRB) is forwarding an Information Collection Request (ICR) to the Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs (OIRA), Office of Management and Budget (OMB). Our ICR describes the information we seek to collect from the public. Review and approval by OIRA ensures that we impose appropriate paperwork burdens. The RRB invites comments on the proposed collections of information to determine (1) the practical utility of the collections; (2) the accuracy of the estimated burden of the collections; (3) ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information that is the subject of collection; and (4) ways to minimize the burden of collections on respondents, including the use of automated collection techniques or other forms of information technology. Comments to the RRB or OIRA must contain the OMB control number of the ICR. For proper consideration of your comments, it is best if the RRB and OIRA receive them within 30 days of the publication date. 1. Title and purpose of information collection: Application to Act as Representative Payee; OMB 3220-0052. Under Section 12 of the Railroad Retirement Act, the Railroad Retirement Board (RRB) may pay benefits to a representative payee when an employee, spouse or survivor annuitant is incompetent or is a minor. A representative payee may be a court-appointed guardian, a statutory conservator or an individual selected by the RRB. The procedures pertaining to the appointment and responsibilities of a representative payee are prescribed in 20 CFR 266. The forms furnished by the RRB to apply for representative payee status, and for securing the information needed to support the application follow. RRB Form AA-5, Application for Substitution of Payee, obtains information needed to determine the selection of a representative payee who will serve in the best interest of the beneficiary. RRB Form G-478, Statement Regarding Patient's Capability to Manage Benefits, obtains information about an annuitant's capability to manage their own benefits. The form is completed by the annuitant's personal physician or by a medical officer, if the annuitant is in an institution. It is not required when a court has appointed an individual or institution to manage the annuitant's funds or, in the absence of such appointment, when the annuitant is a minor. The RRB also provides representative payees with a booklet at the time of their appointment. The booklet, RRB Form RB-5, Your Duties as Representative Payee-Representative Payee's Record, advises representative payees of their responsibilities under 20 CFR 266.9 and provides a means for the representative payee to maintain records pertaining to the receipt and use of RRB benefits. The booklet is provided for the representative payee's convenience. The RRB also accepts records that are kept by representative payees as part of a common business practice. Completion is voluntary. One response is requested of each respondent. Previous Requests for Comments: The RRB has already published the initial 60-day notice (81 FR 54856 on August 17, 2016) required by 44 U.S.C. 3506(c)(2). That request elicited no comments. Information Collection Request (ICR) Title: Application to Act as Representative Payee. OMB Control Number: 3220-0052. Forms submitted: AA-5, G-478, and RB-5. Type of request: Revision of a currently approved collection. Affected public: Individuals or Households; Business or other for Profit. Abstract: Under Section 12 of the Railroad Retirement Act, the Railroad Retirement Board (RRB) may pay benefits to a representative payee when an employee, spouse or survivor annuitant is incompetent or is a minor. The collection obtains information related to the representative payee application, supporting documentation and the maintenance of records pertaining to the receipt and use of benefits. Changes proposed: The RRB is proposing non-burden impacting editorial changes to Forms AA-5, G-478, and the RB-5 booklet. The burden estimate for the ICR is as follows: ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Annual Form No. responses Time (minutes) Burden (hours) ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- AA-5............................................................ 3,000 .............. 850 Individuals................................................. 2,250 17 637.5 Institutions................................................ 750 .............. 212.5 G-478........................................................... 2,000 6 200.0 RB-5............................................................ 15,300 .............. 15,300 Individuals................................................. 11,475 60 11,475 Institutions................................................ 3,825 .............. 3,825 ----------------------------------------------- Total................................................... 20,300 .............. 16,350 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2. Employer Service and Compensation Reports; OMB 3220-0070. Section 2(c) of the Railroad Unemployment Insurance Act (RUIA) specifies the maximum normal unemployment and sickness benefits that may be paid in a benefit year. Section 2(c) further provides for extended benefits for certain employees and for beginning a benefit year early for other employees. The conditions for these actions are prescribed in 20 CFR 302. All information about creditable railroad service and compensation needed by the RRB to administer Section 2(c) is not always available from annual reports filed by railroad employers with the RRB (OMB 3220- 0008). When this occurs, the RRB must [[Page 73157]] obtain supplemental information about service and compensation. The RRB utilizes Form UI-41, Supplemental Report of Service and Compensation, and Form UI-41a, Supplemental Report of Compensation, to obtain the additional information about service and compensation from railroad employers. Completion of the forms is mandatory. One response is required of each respondent. Previous Requests for Comments: The RRB has already published the initial 60-day notice (81 FR 54857 on August 17, 2016) required by 44 U.S.C. 3506(c)(2). That request elicited no comments. Information Collection Request (ICR) Title: Employer Service and Compensation Reports. OMB Control Number: 3220-0070. Forms submitted: UI-41 and UI-41a. Type of request: Extension without change of a currently approved collection. Affected public: Private Sector; Businesses or other for profits. Abstract: The reports obtain the employee's service and compensation for a period subsequent to those already on file and the employee's base year compensation. The information is used to determine the entitlement to and the amount of benefits payable. Changes proposed: The RRB proposes no changes to Form UI-41 and UI- 41a. The burden estimate for the ICR is as follows: ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Annual Form No. responses Time (minutes) Burden (hours) ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- UI-41........................................................... 100 8 13 UI-41a.......................................................... 50 8 7 ----------------------------------------------- Total....................................................... 150 .............. 20 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Additional Information or Comments: Copies of the forms and supporting documents can be obtained from Dana Hickman at (312) 751- 4981 or [email protected]. Comments regarding the information collection should be addressed to Charles Mierzwa, Railroad Retirement Board, 844 North Rush Street, Chicago, Illinois 60611-1275 or [email protected] and to the OMB Desk Officer for the RRB, Fax: 202-395-6974, Email address: [email protected].
