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: Application for Employee
Annuity Under the Railroad Retirement
Act; OMB 3220–0002.
Section 2 of the Railroad Retirement
Act (RRA) provides for payments of age
and service, disability, and
supplemental annuities to qualified
employees. An annuity cannot be paid
until the employee stops working for a
railroad employer. In addition, the age
and service employee must relinquish
any rights held to such jobs. A disabled
employee does not need to relinquish
employee rights until attaining Full
Retirement Age, or if earlier, their
spouse files for a spouse annuity.
Benefits become payable after the
employee meets certain other
requirements, which depend on the type
of annuity payable. The requirements
for obtaining the annuities are
prescribed in 20 CFR 216, and 220.
The RRB currently uses the electronic
AA–1cert, Application Summary and
Certification process and the following
forms to collect the information needed
for determining entitlement to and the
amount of, an employee retirement
annuity: Form AA–1, Application for
Employee Annuity Under the Railroad
Retirement Act, Form AA–1d,
Application for Determination of
Employee Disability, and Form G–204,
Verification of Workers Compensation/
Public Disability Benefit Information.
The AA–1cert process obtains
information from an applicant for either
an age and service, or disability annuity
by means of an interview with an RRB
field-office representative. It obtains
information about an applicant’s marital
history, work history, military service,
benefits from other governmental
agencies and railroad pensions. During
the interview, the field-office
representative enters the information
obtained into an on-line information
system. Upon completion of the
interview, the applicant receives Form
AA–1cert, Application Summary and
Certification, which summarizes the
information that was provided by/or
verified by the applicant, for review and
signature. The RRB also uses a manual
version, RRB Form AA–1, in instances
where the RRB representative is unable
to contact the applicant in-person or by
telephone, i.e., the applicant lives in
another country.
Form AA–1d, Application for
Determination of Employee Disability, is
completed by an employee who is filing
for a disability annuity under the RRA,
or a disability freeze under the Social
Security Act for early Medicare based
on a disability. Form G–204,
Verification of Workers Compensation/
Public Disability Benefit Information, is
used to obtain and verify information
concerning worker’s compensation or
public disability benefits that are or will
be paid by a public agency to a disabled
railroad employee.
The RRB estimates the burden for the
collection as follows:

The RRB proposes changes to the
certification statements of Form(s) AA–
1 and AA–1(cert) that are intended to
provide additional specificity regarding
post-application events that require an
applicant to contact the RRB. Other nonburden impacting editorial and
formatting changes to Form AA–1cert
and Form AA–1 are also proposed.
The RRB proposes the addition of an
item to Form AA–1d to ask a disability
applicant if any additional medical
procedures are scheduled after the filing
of the form, and if so, what those
procedures are, as well as minor nonburden impacting, editorial and
formatting changes. The RRB proposes
no changes to Form G–204.
Completion of the forms is required to
obtain a benefit. One response is
requested of each respondent.
