SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 
    Title; Associated Form; and OMB Number: Request for Information 
Regarding Deceased Debtor; DD Form 2840; OMB Number 0730-0015.
    Needs and Uses: The information collection requirement is necessary 
to obtain information on deceased debtors from probate courts. Probate 
courts review their records to see if an estate was established. They 
provide the name and address of the executor or lawyer handling the 
estate. From the information obtained, DFAS submits a claim against the 
estate for the amount due the United States.
    Affected Public: State, local, or tribal government.
    Annual Burden Hours: 100.
    Number of Respondents: 300.
    Responses per Respondent: 1.
    Annual Responses: 300.
    Average Burden per Response: 20 minutes.
    Frequency: On occasion.
    DFAS maintains updated debt accounts and initiates debt collection 
action for separated military members, out-of-service civilian 
employees, and other individuals not on an active federal government 
payroll system. When notice is received that an individual debtor is 
deceased, an effort is made to ascertain whether the decedent left an 
estate by contacting clerks of probate courts. If it is determined that 
an estate was established, attempts are made to collect the debt from 
the estate. If no estate appears to have been established, the debt is 
written off as uncollectible.
