The Office of Personnel Management (OPM) is inviting the public and federal agencies to comment on a revised information collection request related to the Representative Payee Application (RI 20-7) and Information for a Competency Determination (RI 30-3). These forms are used by the Retirement Services division to assess whether individuals can manage their retirement funds. The public has until February 22, 2021, to submit comments, particularly on the necessity and methodology of the data collection process. The goal is to ensure the information provided is useful and to minimize the burden on respondents.
Simple Explanation
The Office of Personnel Management wants people to say if two forms used to see if someone can handle their retirement money are good or need changes, but it's unclear how they decided the forms take this long to fill out or what they cost. They want ideas for making the forms better, but it's a little confusing about when people should send in their thoughts because of different dates mentioned before.
