SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: As required by the Paperwork Reduction Act
of 1995, as amended (44 U.S.C. chapter 35), OPM is soliciting comments
for this collection (OMB No. 3206-0162). 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.
At the time of retirement, an employee or Member in good health may
elect an insurable interest survivor annuity benefit on behalf of an
eligible beneficiary. OPM Form 1530 is used to collect the information
necessary to determine whether the employee or Member is in good health
so that OPM can determine whether the applicant is eligible to elect an
insurable interest survivor annuity benefit.
