SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: As required by the Paperwork Reduction Act 
of 1995 OPM is soliciting comments for this collection. The information 
collection (OMB No. 3206-0254) was previously published in the Federal 
Register on March 10, 2022 at 87 FR 13777, allowing for a 60-day public 
comment period. OPM received no comments in response to its request for 
this collection. The purpose of this notice is to allow an additional 
30 days for public comments. The Office of Management and Budget is 
particularly interested in comments that:
    1. Evaluate whether the proposed collection of information is 
necessary for the proper performance of functions of the agency, 
including whether the information will have practical utility;
    2. Evaluate the accuracy of the agency's estimate of the burden of 
the proposed collection of information, including the validity of the 
methodology and assumptions used;
    3. Enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to 
be collected; and
    4. Minimize the burden of the collection of information on those 
who are to respond, including through the use of appropriate automated, 
electronic, mechanical, or other technological collection techniques or 
other forms of information technology, e.g., permitting electronic 
submissions of responses.
    RI 20-123 will be available to annuitants and survivor annuitants 
on the OPM website by the end of 2022. It is used by retirees who have 
retired under disability annuity provisions and who have performed 
service as law enforcement officers, firefighters, nuclear materials 
carriers, air traffic controllers, Congressional employees, Members of 
Congress, Capitol and Supreme Court police, or Custom and Border 
protection officers (and their survivors or beneficiaries), to request 
that Retirement Operations review the computations of the retiree's 
disability annuities. Upon receipt of this form, OPM will ensure it has 
computed the disability annuity in accordance with applicable statues. 
These provisions require OPM to compute the disability annuities of 
affected retirees using the higher annuity amount computed under the 
disability annuity computation provisions or the enhanced immediate 
retirement computation provisions specifically applicable to these 
special employee populations. When OPM receives form RI 20-123 from an 
annuitant, survivor or beneficiary it will take action to review the 
retiree's annuity computation and, if the retiree is entitled to an 
increased benefit, or if a survivor or beneficiary is entitled to 
amounts accrued but unpaid to a deceased retiree, OPM will process 
accordingly.
