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: Appeal Under the Railroad
Retirement and Railroad Unemployment
Insurance Act; OMB 3220–0007.
Under section 7(b)(3) of the Railroad
Retirement Act (RRA), and section 5(c)
of the Railroad Unemployment
Insurance Act (RUIA) any person
aggrieved by a decision made by an
office of the RRB on his or her
application for an annuity or benefit
under those Acts has the right to appeal
to the RRB. This right is prescribed in
20 CFR part 260 and 20 CFR part 320.
The notification letter, which is
provided at the time of filing the
original application, informs the
applicant of such right. When an
applicant protests a decision, the
concerned RRB office reviews the entire
file and any additional evidence
submitted and sends the applicant a
letter explaining the basis of the
determination. The applicant is then
notified that to protest further, they can
appeal to the RRB’s Bureau of Hearings
and Appeals. The appeal process is
prescribed in 20 CFR 260.5 and 260.9
and 20 CFR 320.12 and 320.38.
To file a request for an appeal the
applicant must complete Form HA–1,
Appeal Under the Railroad Retirement
Act or Railroad Unemployment
Insurance Act. The form asks the
applicant to explain the basis for their
request for an appeal and, if necessary,
to describe any additional evidence they
wish to submit in support of the appeal.
Completion is voluntary, however, if the
information is not provided the RRB
cannot process the appeal.
Previous Requests for Comments: The
RRB has already published the initial
60-day notice (80 FR 3266, on January
22, 2015) required by 44 U.S.C.

2. Title and purpose of information
collection: Annual Earnings
Questionnaire; OMB 3220–0179.
Under section 2(e)(3) of the Railroad
Retirement Act (RRA), an annuity is not
payable for any month in which a
beneficiary works for a railroad. In
addition, an annuity is reduced for any
month in which the beneficiary works
for an employer other than a railroad
employer and earns more than a
prescribed amount. Under the 1988
amendments to the RRA, the Tier II
portion of the regular annuity and any
supplemental annuity must be reduced
by one dollar for each two dollars of
Last Pre-Retirement Non-Railroad
Employment (LPE) earnings for each
month of such service. However, the
reduction cannot exceed fifty percent of
the Tier II and supplemental annuity
amount for the month to which such
deductions apply. The LPE generally
refers to an annuitant’s last employment
with a non-railroad person, company, or
institution prior to retirement, which
was performed at the same time as
railroad employment or after the
annuitant stopped railroad employment.
The collection obtains earnings
information needed by the RRB to
determine if possible reductions in
annuities are in order due to LPE.
The RRB utilizes Form G–19L,
Annual Earnings Questionnaire, to
obtain LPE earnings information from
annuitants. One response is requested of
each respondent. Completion is
required to retain a benefit.
Previous Requests for Comments: The
RRB has already published the initial
60-day notice (80 FR 3266, on January
22, 2015) required by 44 U.S.C.
3506(c)(2). That request elicited no
comments.

the Railroad Retirement Board to
determine possible reductions in
annuities because of earnings.
