                SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: As required by the Paperwork Reduction Act
                of 1995 OPM is soliciting comments for this collection. The information
                collection (OMB No. 3206-0235) was previously published in the Federal
                Register on March 23, 2020 at 85 FR 16394, allowing for a 60-day public
                comment period. No comments were received. The purpose of this notice

                Management and Budget is particularly interested in comments that:
                [[Page 48732]]
                 1. Evaluate whether the proposed collection of information is
                necessary for the proper performance of the 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 20-64, Letter Reply to Request for Information, is used by the
                Civil Service Retirement System (CSRS) to provide information about the
                amount of annuity payable after a survivor reduction, to explain the
                annuity reductions required to pay for the survivor benefit, and to
                give the beginning rate of survivor annuity. RI 20-64A, Former Spouse
                Survivor Annuity Election, is used by the CSRS to obtain a survivor
                benefit election from annuitants who are eligible to elect to provide
                survivor benefits for a former spouse. RI 20-64B, Information on
                Electing a Survivor Annuity for Your Former Spouse, is a pamphlet that
                provides important information to retirees under the CSRS who want to
                provide a survivor annuity for a former spouse.
