Section 2 of the Railroad Retirement
Act provides for payment of annuities to retired or disabled
railroad employees, their spouses, and eligible survivors. When the
RRB determines that an overpayment of RRA benefits has occurred, it
initiates prompt action to notify the claimant of the overpayment
and to recover the amount owed. The collection obtains information
needed to allow for repayment by the claimant by credit card, in
addition to the customary form of payment by check or money
order.
On behalf of this Federal agency, I certify that
the collection of information encompassed by this request complies
with 5 CFR 1320.9 and the related provisions of 5 CFR
1320.8(b)(3).
