OFFICE OF PERSONNEL MANAGEMENT

 
Submission for OMB Review; Comment Request Review of a New 
Information Collection; Standard Form 2817

AGENCY: Office of Personnel Management.

ACTION: Notice.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: In accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (Public 
Law 104-13, May 22, 1995), this notice announces that the Office of 
Personnel Management is submitting to the Office of Management and 
Budget a request for clearance of a new information collection. SF 
2817, Federal Employees' Group Life Insurance Election, is used to 
enroll or change elections under the Federal Employee's Group Life 
Insurance Program. This form is proposed for clearance because Federal 
employees and retirees can now assign (give up ownership of) their 
insurance coverage. Assignees may now use the SF 2817 to make election 
changes to decrease the employee's or retiree's coverage. Since 
assignees are members of the public, OMB clearance is now required for 
this form. We are clearing this form for assignees only.
    We estimate 100 forms are completed annually by assignees. Each 
form takes approximately 15 minutes to complete. The annual estimated 
burden is 25 hours.
    For copies of this proposal, contact Jim Farron on (202) 418-3208, 
or E-mail to jmfarron@mail.opm.gov
