SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Description of Information Collection
Title: Application for Payment of Amounts Due Persons Who Have
Died, Disappeared, or Have Been Declared Incompetent.
OMB Number: 0560-0226.
OMB Expiration Date of Approval: 04/30/2023.
Type of Request: Extension.
Abstract: Persons desiring to claim payments earned, but not yet
paid to a person who has died, disappeared, or has been declared
incompetent must complete form FSA-325, Application for Payment of
Amounts Due Persons Who Have Died, Disappeared, or Have Been Declared
Incompetent. This information required by form FSA-325 is used by FSA
county office employees to document the relationship of heirs,
beneficiaries, or others who claim that a payment was earned, but not
yet paid to the person who died, disappeared, or who has been declared
incompetent, and to determine the share and order of precedence for
disbursing payments to such persons.
Information is obtained only when a person claims that they are due
a payment that was earned, but not paid to a producer that has died,
disappeared, or has been declared incompetent, and documentation is
needed to determine if any individuals are entitled to receive such
payments or disbursements. The burden hours have not changed since the
last OMB approval.
For the following estimated total annual burden on respondents, the
formula used to calculate the total burden hour is the estimated
average time per responses multiplied by the estimated total annual
responses.
Estimate of Annual Burden: Public reporting burden for this
collection of information is estimated to average 0.50 hours per
response.
Type of Respondents: Producers.
Estimated Number of Respondents: 2,000.
Estimated Annual Number of Responses per Respondent: 1.
Estimated Total Annual of Responses: 2,000.
Estimated Average Time per Responses: 0.50 hours.
Estimated Total Annual Burden on Respondents: 1,000.
We are requesting comments on all aspects of this information
collection to help us to:
(1) Evaluate whether the collection of information is necessary for
the proper performance of the functions of FSA, including whether the
information will have practical utility;
(2) Evaluate the accuracy of FSA's estimate of burden including the
validity of the methodology and assumptions used;
(3) Enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to
be collected;
(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.
All responses to this notice, including names and addresses when
provided, will be summarized and included in the request for OMB
approval. All comments will also become a matter of public record.
Zach Ducheneaux,
Administrator, Farm Service Agency, and Executive Vice President,
Commodity Credit Corporation.
