SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Standard Form 3102, CSRS/FERS Designation of
Beneficiary, is used by an employee or annuitant covered under the
Civil Service Retirement System or the Federal Employees Retirement
System to designate a beneficiary to receive any lump sum due in the
event of his/her death.
OPM is requesting approval for this form to be designated as a
``common form.'' A common form is an information collection that can be
used by two or more agencies, or government-wide, for the same purpose.
It allows a host agency to obtain OMB approval of an information
collection for use by one or more ``using'' agencies. After OMB grants
approval, a prospective using agency that seeks to collect identical
information for the same purpose can obtain approval to use the common
form by providing its agency-specific information to OMB (e.g., burden
estimates and number of respondents). See Frequently Asked Questions
about ROCIS's New Common Forms Module (<a href="http://whitehouse.gov">whitehouse.gov</a>). OPM seeks the
designation as a common form because this form is used by all Federal
employees to designate a beneficiary to any lump sum due in the event
of his/her death.
As required by the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (Pub. L. 104-
13), as amended (44 U.S.C. chapter 35), OPM is soliciting comments for
this collection (OMB No. 3206-0173). OPM 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.
