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 â.33 versus .33333333333â. 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).
