Submission for OMB Review; Comment Request for Review of a 
Currently Approved Information Collection: RI 98-7

AGENCY: Office of Personnel Management.

ACTION: Notice.

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

SUMMARY: In accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (Pub. 
L. 104-13, May 22, 1995), this notice announces that the Office of 
Personnel Management (OPM) has submitted to the Office of Management 
and Budget (OMB) a request for review of a currently approved 
information collection. RI 98-7, We Need Important Information About 
Your Eligibility for Social Security Disability Benefits, is used by 
OPM to verify receipt of Social Security Administration (SSA) 
disability benefits, to lessen or avoid overpayment to Federal 
Employees Retirement System (FERS) disability retirees. It notifies the 
annuitant of the responsibility to notify OPM if SSA benefits begin and 
the overpayment that will occur with the receipt of both benefits.
    Approximately 3,000 RI 98-7 forms will be completed annually. The 
form takes approximately 5 minutes to complete. The annual burden is 
250 hours.
