The Office of Personnel Management (OPM) is inviting public comments on a revised information collection request concerning the Life Insurance Election form, known as SF 2817. Comments are being accepted until April 26, 2021, and can be submitted through the Federal Rulemaking Portal. This request for comments is part of the process required by the Paperwork Reduction Act, as the form involves collecting information from federal employees and assignees, who are individuals that manage an employee's life insurance. The feedback sought includes evaluations of the necessity, accuracy, and burden of the information collected.
Simple Explanation
The government wants to see if people like or have ideas to change a paper that federal workers fill out to pick their life insurance. They are asking everyone to share thoughts about this before April 26, 2021, to help them make the form better and less confusing.
