AGENCY:

SUMMARY: In accordance with the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (Pub.
L. 104–13, May 22, 1995), this notice
announces that the U.S. Office of
Personnel Management (OPM) intends
to submit to the Office of Management
and Budget (OMB) a request for
clearance of a revised information
collection. OPM sends the INV 10
questionnaire to a random sampling of
record and personal sources contacted
during background investigations when
investigators have performed fieldwork.
The INV 10 is used as a quality control
instrument designed to ensure the
accuracy and integrity of the
investigative product, as it inquires of
the sources about the investigative
procedure employed by the investigator,
the investigator’s professionalism, and
the information discussed and reported.
In addition to the pre-formatted
response options, OPM invites the
recipients to respond with any other
relevant comments or suggestions. A
postage-paid envelope is provided with
the INV 10.
Comments are particularly invited on:
• Whether this collection of
information is necessary for the proper
performance of functions of the Office of
Personnel Management and its Center
for Federal Investigative Services, which
administers its background
investigations;
• Whether our estimate of the public
burden of this collection is accurate,
and based on valid assumptions and
methodology;
• Ways in which we can minimize
the burden of the collection of
information on those who are asked to

respond, through the use of the
appropriate technological collection
techniques or other forms of information
technology; and,
• Whether the reinterview
questionnaire addresses all of the
questions relevant to ensure the
accuracy and integrity of the
investigative product.
It is estimated that 9,600 INV 10 forms
are sent to individual sources annually.
Of those, it is estimated that 5,600
individuals will respond. Each form
takes approximately 6 minutes to
complete. The estimated annual burden
is 560 hours.

DATES: Comments on this proposal
should be received within 60 calendar
days from the date of this publication.

Board (RRB) will publish periodic

ways to minimize the burden related to
the collection of information on
respondents, including the use of
automated collection techniques or
other forms of information technology.
Title and purpose of information
collection: Medicare; OMB 3220–0082.
Under Section 7(d) of the Railroad
Retirement Act (RRA), the Railroad
Retirement Board (RRB) administers the
Medicare program for persons covered
by the railroad retirement system. The
RRB uses Form AA–6, Employee
Application for Medicare; Form AA–7,
Spouse/Divorced Spouse Application
For Medicare; and Form AA–8, Widow/
Widower Application for Medicare; to
obtain the information needed to
determine whether individuals who
have not yet filed for benefits under the
RRA are qualified for Medicare
payments provided under Title XVIII of
the Social Security Act.
Further, in order for the RRB to
determine if a qualified railroad
retirement beneficiary who is claiming
supplementary medical insurance
coverage under Medicare is entitled to
a Special Enrollment Period (SEP) and/
or premium surcharge relief because of
coverage under an Employer Group
Health Plan (EGHP), it needs to obtain
information regarding the claimant’s
EGHP coverage, if any. The RRB uses
Form RL–311–F, Evidence of Coverage
Under An Employer Group Health Plan,
to obtain the basic information needed
by the RRB to establish EGHP coverage
for a qualified railroad retirement
beneficiary. Completion of the forms is
required to obtain a benefit. One
response is requested of each
respondent.
The RRB proposes no changes to
Forms AA–6, AA–7 and AA–8. The RRB
proposes revision of Form RL–311–F to
add a new item which asks if the
employee is still working. This
information is being added to clarify the
employment status of the employee and
is needed to determine the Special
Enrollment Period. The RRB estimates
that 180 Form AA–6’s, 50 Form AA–7’s,
10 Form AA–8’s, and 800 RL–311–F’s
are completed annually. The completion
time for Forms AA–6, AA–7 and AA–8
is estimated at 8 minutes. The
completion time for Form RL–311–F is
estimated at 10 minutes.
Additional Information or Comments:
To request more information or to
obtain a copy of the information
collection justification, forms, and/or
supporting material, please call the RRB
Clearance Officer at (312) 751–3363 or
send an e-mail request to
[email protected]. Comments
regarding the information collection
should be addressed to Ronald J.
