There are no changes with the
previous submission related to number of respondents and IC cost
burden dollars, which remains 37,056, and $15,030, respectively.
However, the previously approved burden hours, 12,352, is reduced
to 12,228 (a decrease of 124) due to rounding of the average burden
hour to “.33 versus .33333333333”. In addition, the revision to
this ICR only affects a change to a question in PART D--OTHER
FEDERAL BENEFITS OR PAYMENTS of Form CA-1032. This change was
necessary to help clarify the question regarding the respondent's
receipt of Social Security benefits in conjunction with Federal
Employees' Retirement System (FERS) benefits due to Federal
service. Such receipt receipt requires an offset from compensation
benefits for disability and the question was rephrased to better
clarify the information needed. Specific changes are noted as
follows and are outlined in Question15 of the Supporting
Statement.
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).
The following is a summary of the topics, regarding
the proposed collection of information, that the certification
covers:
(i) Why the information is being collected;
(ii) Use of information;
(iii) Burden estimate;
(iv) Nature of response (voluntary, required for a
benefit, or mandatory);
(v) Nature and extent of confidentiality; and
(vi) Need to display currently valid OMB control
number;
If you are unable to certify compliance with any of
these provisions, identify the item by leaving the box unchecked
and explain the reason in the Supporting Statement.
