Application for Annuity or Lump Sum

The Railroad Retirement Board (Board) proposes to amend its regulations to permit the filing of applications via the Internet. The Government Paperwork Elimination Act provides that federal agencies are required by October 21, 2003, to provide "for the option of the electronic maintenance, submission, or disclosure of information, when practicable as a substitute for paper". The proposed changes to part 217 will permit the filing of applications for benefits under the Railroad Retirement Act electronically.
