Proposed Collection; Comment
Request
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
SUMMARY:
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)

Title and purpose of information
collection: Application and Claim for
Sickness Insurance Benefits; OMB
3220–0039.
Under Section 2 of the Railroad
Unemployment Insurance Act (RUIA),
sickness benefits are payable to
qualified railroad employees who are
unable to work because of illness or
injury. In addition, sickness benefits are
payable to qualified female employees if
they are unable to work, or if working
would be injurious, because of
pregnancy, miscarriage, or childbirth.
Under Section 1(k) of the RUIA a
statement of sickness, with respect to
days of sickness of an employee, is to
be filed with the RRB within a 10-day
period from the first day claimed as a
day of sickness. The Railroad
Retirement Board’s (RRB) authority for
requesting supplemental medical
information is Section 12(i) and 12(n) of
the RUIA. The procedures for claiming
sickness benefits and for the RRB to
obtain supplemental medical
information needed to determine a
claimant’s eligibility for such benefits
are prescribed in 20 CFR part 335.
The forms currently used by the RRB
to obtain information needed to
determine eligibility for, and the
amount of, sickness benefits due a
claimant follow: Form SI–1a,
Application for Sickness Benefits; Form
SI–1b, Statement of Sickness; Form SI–
3, Claim for Sickness Benefits; Form SI–
7, Supplemental Doctor’s Statement;
Form SI–8, Verification of Medical
Information; Form ID–7H, NonEntitlement to Sickness Benefits and
Information on Unemployment Benefits;
Form ID–11A, Requesting Reason for
Late Filing of Sickness Benefit, and ID–
11B, Notice of Insufficient Medical and
Late Filing. Completion is required to
obtain or retain benefits. One response
is requested of each respondent.
The RRB proposes no changes to any
of the forms in the information
collection.
