This form is
again given a limited term approval due to OPM's non-responsiveness
to OMB's last approval action of 6/14/91. OPM should respond to the
terms of clearance transmitted as part of the Notice of OMB Action
dated 6/14/91. In the future, OPM should submit requests for OMB
approval at least 90 days before expiration of the existing
approval. OPM should be aware that continued use of a form after
its expiration date violates the requirements of the Paperwork
Reduction Act. OMB will reassess its practice of permitting OPM to
print certain form without expiration dates. OPM's failure to
manage the timing of future requests for OMB approval so as to
allow this situation to occur will be a major consideration in this
reassessment.
