survivor annuity.

Part A - To be completed by employing agency
Part B - To be completed by survivor
Part C - To be completed by survivor of deceased employee in receipt of military retired pay
at the time of death
Our records indicate that you might be eligible for a civil service annuity. You have the right to make a deposit for the
deceased employee's post-1956 military service. Your decision may affect your rights under CSRS. Read the attached
"Information for the Survivor of a Deceased CSRS Employee..." carefully to be sure you understand the consequences of not
making the deposit for military service. Then make your election, sign and date the form, and return two (2) copies to the
address shown in item 8 above. If you have decided to pay the deposit, we will provide you with the necessary information.
Payment must be made in a lump sum to this agency before the Office of Personnel Management completes its adjudication
of your application for survivor benefits.
Survivor Election - I have read the information concerning my right to make a lump sum deposit to the decedent's employing
agency for post-1956 military service.
I elect to make (or complete) the deposit to the employing
agency for the decedent's post-1956 military service. I
understand that this deposit must be paid to the agency in
a lump sum. (Note: The election may be changed at any
time before the deposit is actually paid to the agency.)
I elect not to make (or complete) the deposit for post-
1956 military service. I understand this decision is
irrevocable.
If the deceased employee received military retired or retainer pay that was (1) not awarded because of a service-connected
disability incurred either in combat with an enemy of the United States or caused by an instrumentality of war and incurred in
the line of duty during a period of war, or (2) awarded under reserve retiree provisions (chapter 67 of title 10, United States
Code), you will receive credit for the military service subject to the rules for post-1956 military deposits. However, if you do
receive credit for military service (including any pre-1957 military service), your CSRS survivor benefit must be reduced by
the amount of any military survivor benefits payable to you. In some instances, it may be advantageous to receive a survivor
benefit including the military service in the computation. In order to advise you about the survivor annuity benefits, we need
to know if you are eligible for military survivor benefits. Your documentation or verification of your entitlement to military
survivor benefits should be attached as indicated.
Survivor Election - To exclude military service from the computation of your survivor annuity, etc., check the appropriate
box below.
I have attached verification of my eligibility or ineligibility for military survivor benefits.

Because your decision about completing the deposit for or including the deceased employee's military service in the
survivor annuity computation may affect your rights under the Civil Service Retirement System (CSRS), you need to
be aware of the following information.
A. If The Deceased Employee Was First Employed Under CSRS Before October 1, 1982
1. Optional Deposit
a. If you qualify at the employee's death for social security survivor benefits based on his or her
service, you have the option of either making the deposit and the post-1956 military service will
be included in the CSRS survivor annuity computation, or not making the deposit and the post-
1956 military service will be excluded from the CSRS survivor annuity computation.
b. If you will qualify at a future date for social security survivor benefits based on the decedent's
service, post-1956 military service will be included in the computation of your CSRS survivor
annuity until you become entitled (or would upon application be entitled) to social security
benefits. You have the option of either making the deposit now and avoiding the reduction in
your CSRS survivor annuity, or not making the deposit and having your CSRS annuity adjusted
to exclude post-1956 military service when you become eligible for social security benefits
based on the decedent's service.
2. Eligibility for Social Security
A survivor of a deceased employee may be eligible for social security survivor benefits if the employee
was "fully insured" and the survivor is (a) the parent of an eligible child, (b) age 50 or over and disabled,
(c) age 60 or over, or (d) a divorced spouse age 62 or over. For information about your present or future
eligibility for social security survivor benefits, contact the Social Security Administration. NOTE: If you
become ineligible for social security survivor benefits based on the deceased employee's service (e.g., by
becoming eligible for social security benefits based on your own earnings which exceed the survivor
benefits), you should contact OPM. You may be eligible to have the military service restored to the
survivor annuity computation.
B. If the Deceased Employee Was First Employed Under CSRS After September 30, 1982, no credit is allowed
for post-1956 military service unless a deposit is made for the service.
C. Factors that May Affect Creditability of Military Service Regardless of When the Deceased Was First Employed
1. Minimum Basic Annuity Provisions
If you are eligible for a CSRS survivor annuity based on the minimum basic annuity provisions of the law,
it is possible that the exclusion of credit for post-1956 military service will have no effect on the amount
of your annuity. (See items 4 and 5 in Part A of this form. If you need more information about how you
may be affected, contact the decedent's employing agency representative in item 7 of Part A of this form.
2. Effect of Military Retired Pay
a. If, at the time of death, the employee was receiving military retired or retainer pay that was (1)
awarded because of a service-connected disability incurred either in combat with an enemy of the
United States or caused by an instrumentality of war and incurred in the line of duty during a period
of war, or (2) awarded under the reserve retiree provisions (chapter 67 of title 10, United States
Code), you will receive credit for the military service subject to the provisions for military deposit for
post-1956 military service.

Rev. January 1991
b. If, at the time of death, the employee was receiving military retired or retainer pay that was not
awarded under either of the two exceptions noted in C.2.a. above, you will also receive credit for
the military service subject to an important difference in the computation of the benefits described
below. (1) If your deceased spouse arranged for you to receive a military survivor benefit, your
CSRS survivor benefit will be reduced by the amount of the military benefit. Since this reduction
will never be greater than the value of the military service under the CSRS benefit computation,
you are not disadvantaged by this requirement with respect to your CSRS benefit. (2) If you feel
that it is not to your advantage to include the military service in the computation of your CSRS
survivor benefit, you may send OPM your written election not to include the military service in
your CSRS survivor annuity computation now. (See Part C of "Survivor Election.")
D. Information About Deposit for Military Service
1. The amount of deposit is 7 percent of military basic pay (plus interest, if any).
2. If the deposit is made, the post-1956 military service will be credited under both the civil service and
the social security systems, if it is otherwise creditable.
E. If You Are the Survivor of a Reemployed Annuitant
1. If the deceased employee was reemployed while annuity payments were continuing and had less than
5 years of service as a reemployed annuitant at the time of death, you are not eligible to make a
deposit for the military service.
2. If the deceased employee had 5 or more years of service as a reemployed annuitant and you elect a
recomputation of the annuity under the law in effect at the time of death, you may make a deposit for
post-1956 military service. However, if you elect a recomputation of the annuity, a deposit must also
be made to cover any of the decedent's service as a reemployed annuitant for which no retirement
deductions were made. Before you make your deposit ask the decedent's employing office for
information about how a recomputation will affect your annuity.
F. If You Elect To Pay the Deposit
1. If you do not have sufficient documentation of military basic pay earnings for the employing agency
to determine the amount due, the agency will tell you how to obtain an estimate of earnings from the
branch of military service in which the decedent served.
2. You should make payment to the agency as soon as possible. The agency will not delay processing of
your application for death benefits while you are waiting to receive an estimate of military earnings
from the military service. If you have not made the deposit before the agency sends the application to
OPM, the agency will tell OPM that you plan to pay the deposit.
3. In order to credit your deposit, OPM must receive documentation of your payment from the agency
before your application is completely adjudicated.
4. If you elect to pay the deposit, but later decide not to do so, promptly notify the employing agency and
OPM in writing so that OPM can complete final adjudication of your application for survivor benefits.
