1. 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.

Section 2 of the Railroad Retirement
Act (RRA) provides for the payment of
an annuity to the spouse or divorced
spouse of a retired railroad employee.
For the spouse or divorced spouse to

determine if the employee’s current
marriage to the applicant is valid.
The requirements for obtaining
documentary evidence to determine
valid marital relationships are
prescribed in 20 CFR 219.30 through
219.35. Section 2(e) of the RRA requires
that an employee must relinquish all
rights to any railroad employer service
before a spouse annuity can be paid.
The RRB uses Form G–346 to obtain
the information needed to determine
whether the employee’s current
marriage is valid. Form G–346 is
completed by the retired employee who
