Short Statement:
While DOL has revised the form to enhance the Privacy Act Statement and make a few formatting changes, those changes are not expected materially to affect the public burden in responding to this information collection. These changes include: Question 8 on the Form CA-2a has revised to comply with current federal law and FECA Bulletin No. 14-01, December 12, 2013. Additionally, the two sentences involving instructions to the employing agency regarding issuance of a CA-16 and return to work were deleted as they are no longer valid. Lastly, an accommodation statement was placed on the form to inform claimants who have mental or physical limitations to contact DFEC for if further assistance is needed in the claims process. Over the last three fiscal years (FY 2011-2013) an average of 5,162 recurrences were submitted, a decrease of 1,111 claims per year (6,273 was the average figure in the previous ICR submission in 2011). In applying the 5% rule described in the discussion in section A.1 of the supporting statement towards the number of claims being submitted by claimants who have left federal employment, the number of claims submitted by this group during this period is 258. This figure represents a reduction of 56 claims since the last OMB submission (5% X 5,162 = 258 (current) versus 314 (5% of 6,273 = 314 (previous submission). The requested annual cost burden in dollars is $134 (.52 x 258), which is a decrease of $14.00 from the previous submission of $148 (.47 x 314 = $148).
