RAILROAD RETIREMENT BOARD
Agency Forms Submitted for OMB
Review, Request for Comments
Summary: In accordance with the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44
U.S.C. Chapter 35), the Railroad
Retirement Board (RRB) is forwarding
three Information Collection Requests
(ICR) to the Office of Information and
Regulatory Affairs (OIRA), Office of
Management and Budget (OMB). Our
ICR describes the information we seek
to collect from the public. Review and
approval by OIRA ensures that we
impose appropriate paperwork burdens.
The RRB invites comments on the
proposed collections of information to
determine (1) the practical utility of the
collections; (2) the accuracy of the
estimated burden of the collections; (3)
ways to enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information that is the
subject of collection; and (4) ways to
minimize the burden of collections on
respondents, including the use of
automated collection techniques or
other forms of information technology.
Comments to the RRB or OIRA must
contain the OMB control number of the
ICR. For proper consideration of your
comments, it is best if the RRB and
OIRA receive them within 30 days of
the publication date.
1. Title and purpose of information
collection: Employer Service and
Compensation Reports; OMB 3220–
0070.
Section 2(c) of the Railroad
Unemployment Insurance Act (RUIA)
specifies the maximum normal
unemployment and sickness benefits
that may be paid in a benefit year.
Section 2(c) further provides for
extended benefits for certain employees
and for beginning a benefit year early for
other employees. The conditions for
these actions are prescribed in 20 CFR
part 302.
All information about creditable
railroad service and compensation
needed by the RRB to administer
Section 2(c) is not always available from
annual reports filed by railroad
employers with the RRB (OMB 3220–
0008). When this occurs, the RRB must
obtain supplemental information about
service and compensation.
The RRB utilizes Form UI–41,
Supplemental Report of Service and
Compensation, and Form UI–41a,
Supplemental Report of Compensation,
to obtain the additional information
about service and compensation from
railroad employers. Completion of the
forms is mandatory. One response is
required of each respondent.

RRB has already published the initial

Social Security Act, effective January 1,
1985, the Tier I or the overall minimum
(O/M) portion of an annuity, and
Medicare benefits payable under the
Railroad Retirement Act to certain

employees who (1) initially became
eligible for Tier I amounts, O/M shares,
and Medicare benefits after December

months starting with the annuity
beginning date. The benefit withholding
provision does not apply, however to a
beneficiary who is exempt under either
a treaty obligation of the U.S., in effect
on August 1, 1956, or a totalization
agreement between the U.S. and the
country in which the beneficiary
resides, or to an individual who is
exempt under other criteria specified in
Public Law 98–21.
RRB Form G–45, Supplement to
Claim of Person Outside the United
States, is currently used by the RRB to
determine applicability of the
withholding provision of Public Law
98–21. Completion of the form is
required to obtain or retain a benefit.

respondent.
