RAILROAD RETIREMENT BOARD
Proposed Data Collection Available for
Public Comment and
Recommendations
SUMMARY: In accordance with the
requirement of Section 3506 (c)(2)(A) of
the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995
which provides opportunity for public
comment on new or revised data
collections, the Railroad Retirement
Board (RRB) will publish periodic
summaries of proposed data collections.
Comments are invited on: (a) Whether
the proposed information collection is
necessary for the proper performance of
the functions of the agency, including
whether the information has practical
utility; (b) the accuracy of the RRB’s
estimate of the burden of the collection
of the information; (c) ways to enhance
the quality, utility, and clarity of the
information to be collected; and (d)
ways to minimize the burden related to
the collection of information on
respondents, including the use of
automated collection techniques or
other forms of information technology.
Title and purpose of information
collection: Evidence of Marital
Relationship, Living with Requirements;
OMB 3220–0021. To support an
application for a spouse or widow(er)’s
annuity under Sections 2(c) or 2(d) of
the Railroad Retirement Act, an
applicant must submit proof of a valid
marriage to a railroad employee. In
some cases, the existence of a marital
relationship is not formalized by a civil
or religious ceremony. In other cases,
questions may arise about the legal
termination of a prior marriage of an
employee, spouse, or widow(er). In
these instances, the RRB must secure
additional information to resolve
questionable marital relationships. The
circumstances requiring an applicant to
submit documentary evidence of
marriage are prescribed in 20 CFR
219.30.
In the absence of documentary
evidence to support the existence of a
valid marriage between a spouse or
widow(er) annuity applicant and a
railroad employee, the RRB needs to
obtain information to determine if a
valid marriage existed. The RRB utilizes
Forms G–124, Statement of Marital
Relationship; G–124a, Statement
Regarding Marriage; G–237, Statement
Regarding Marital Status; G–238,
Statement of Residence; and G–238a,
Statement Regarding Divorce or
Annulment to secure the needed
information. One response is requested
of each respondent. Completion is
required to obtain benefits. The RRB
proposes no changes to the forms in the
collection.
ESTIMATE OF ANNUAL RESPONDENT BURDEN

respondents, including the use of
automated collection techniques or
other forms of information technology.
Title and Purpose of Information
Collection: Evidence for Application of
Overall Minimum: OMB 3220–0083.
Under section 3(f)(3) of the Railroad
Retirement Act (RRA), the total monthly
benefits payable to a railroad employee
and his/her family are guaranteed to be
no less than the amount that would be
payable if the employee’s railroad
service had been covered by the Social
Security Act. This is referred to as the
Special Guaranty computation or the
Retirement Overall Minimum (O/M)
provision. To administer the Special
Guaranty provision, the RRB requires
information about a retired employee’s
spouse and any child who is not
currently eligible for benefits under the
RRA but might have been eligible for
benefits under the Social Security Act if
E:\FR\FM\08JYN1.SGM
08JYN1
39537
Federal Register / Vol. 70, No. 130 / Friday, July 8, 2005 / Notices
the employee’s railroad service had
been covered by that Act.
The RRB currently obtains the
required information by the use of forms
G–319 (Statement Regarding Family and
Earnings for Special Guaranty
Computation) and G–320 (Statement by
Employee Annuitant Regarding Student
Age 18–19). One form is completed by
each respondent.
The RRB proposes significant burden
impacting changes to Form G–319 and
Form G–320. The major changes
proposed are primarily to gather
information needed due to the Railroad
Retirement and Survivors Improvement
Act which created a new category of
employees whose families might qualify
for the Special Guaranty Computation if
the employee has less than 120 months
of railroad service, but at least 60
months of railroad service after 1995,
and to expand the use of Form G–320
to include student attendance
monitoring. Proposed Form G–319 will
be renamed, ‘‘Statement Regarding
Family and Earnings for the Special
Guaranty Computation’’. Proposed Form
G–320 will be renamed ‘‘Student
Questionnaire for the Special Guaranty
Computation’’. Transmittal letters
containing completion instructions have
been developed for both of the proposed
forms.
The estimated annual respondent
burden is as follows:

RAILROAD RETIREMENT BOARD
Proposed Collection; Comment Request
SUMMARY: In accordance with the requirement of section 3506(c)(2)(A) of
the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 which provides opportunity for
public comment on new or revised data collections, the Railroad
Retirement Board (RRB) will publish periodic summaries of proposed data
collections.
Comments are invited on: (a) Whether the proposed information
collection is necessary for the proper performance of the functions of
the agency, including whether the information has practical utility;
(b) the accuracy of the RRB's estimate of the burden of the collection
of the information; (c) ways to enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be collected; and (d) ways to minimize
the burden related to the collection of information on respondents,
including the use of automated collection techniques or other forms of
information technology.
Title and Purpose of Information Collection: Evidence for
Application of Overall Minimum: OMB 3220-0083.
Under section 3(f)(3) of the Railroad Retirement Act (RRA), the
total monthly benefits payable to a railroad employee and his/her
family are guaranteed to be no less than the amount that would be
payable if the employee's railroad service had been covered by the
Social Security Act. This is referred to as the Special Guaranty
computation or the Retirement Overall Minimum (O/M) provision. To
administer the Special Guaranty provision, the RRB requires information
about a retired employee's spouse and any child who is not currently
eligible for benefits under the RRA but might have been eligible for
benefits under the Social Security Act if
[[Page 39537]]
the employee's railroad service had been covered by that Act.
The RRB currently obtains the required information by the use of
forms G-319 (Statement Regarding Family and Earnings for Special
Guaranty Computation) and G-320 (Statement by Employee Annuitant
Regarding Student Age 18-19). One form is completed by each respondent.
The RRB proposes significant burden impacting changes to Form G-319
and Form G-320. The major changes proposed are primarily to gather
information needed due to the Railroad Retirement and Survivors
Improvement Act which created a new category of employees whose
families might qualify for the Special Guaranty Computation if the
employee has less than 120 months of railroad service, but at least 60
months of railroad service after 1995, and to expand the use of Form G-
320 to include student attendance monitoring. Proposed Form G-319 will
be renamed, ``Statement Regarding Family and Earnings for the Special
Guaranty Computation''. Proposed Form G-320 will be renamed ``Student
Questionnaire for the Special Guaranty Computation''. Transmittal
letters containing completion instructions have been developed for both
of the proposed forms.
The estimated annual respondent burden is as follows:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
