This form is
approved for a limited time period of one year. In its next request
for OMB approval OPM should reflect consideration of ways to
shorten the instructions. Many items covered in the instructions
appear to be self explanatory. In addition OPM should consider
removing general program information from the packet or movin it to
the back of the instructions. OMB is sending seperately to OPM a
detailed markup of the instructions with suggestions as to how this
simplification might be accomplished.
