The information is necessary to request payment or reissue of Savings Bonds/Notes held in safekeeping when original safekeeping custody receipts are not available. The information on the form is used by the Department of the Treasury, Bureau of the Public Debt, to identify the securities involved, establish entitlement, and to obtain a certified request for payment or reissue. Without the information, the transaction cannot be completed.
The increase in the reported burden is due to an examination of forms distributed by the Bureau of the Public Debt and downloaded from our website over the past 3-4 years. Previous burden was reported based on estimates of use. The increase of 1,466 burden hours is a program change due to agency discretion for a total of 1,500 hours.
