Name of annuitant
Claim number
Representative Payee Application
The Office of Personnel Management (OPM) has received information indicating that the above-named annuitant may not be capable of
handling his or her benefits under the Civil Service Retirement System or the Federal Employees Retirement System. (Note: The
annuitant may be a minor child without a parent to handle the benefits.) If the annuitant cannot handle the benefits, we require that the
payments be made to a court-appointed fiduciary or to a person we select to represent the annuitant. A fiduciary is a person or institution
appointed by a State court to be responsible for managing funds on behalf of another person.
Under the retirement law, the preferred payee in this type of case is a court-appointed fiduciary. However, if a fiduciary has not been
appointed, we have authority to make payments to a representative who is willing to act on behalf of the annuitant. In addition to
receiving annuity payments, the person representing the annuitant is responsible for acting in the annuitant's best interests by using the
payments to benefit the annuitant, authorizing the correct withholding of Federal income tax from the annuity, and selecting the Federally
sponsored health benefits coverage for the annuitant when applicable.
Payments are made to a court-appointed fiduciary or OPM-selected representative with the clear understanding that the funds will be
used or conserved for the benefit of the annuitant. In the event that part or all of the annuitant's monthly payment is not required to meet
his or her current needs, the representative is required to conserve the unused amount for the annuitant's future needs. The
representative will be held accountable for the funds and will have to provide written reports as OPM may require to show that the
payments are being properly used for the annuitant. Further, the representative is obligated to notify OPM immediately when he or she is
no longer acting for the annuitant. The representative will be held liable for any payments which may be received after the annuitant dies.
Such payments must be immediately returned to the U.S. Treasury Department.
OPM will not make a payee change based on a power of attorney or the existence of a joint account with the annuitant at a financial
institution. We require either a State court appointment of a fiduciary or an OPM-administered agreement before we will allow anyone
other than the annuitant to receive payments or authorize actions based on this claim.
If there is a court-appointed fiduciary, he or she may apply to become payee by sending us an original or a certified copy of the court
appointment in the enclosed envelope with the attached application for selection. (Uncertified photocopies are not acceptable.)
If there is no court-appointed fiduciary or if there is one, but you believe that you should receive the payments instead, please assist us in
selecting a payee by completing the attached application and returning it in the enclosed envelope or to the address shown above.
For more information, call the Retirement Information Office at 1-888-767-6738, Monday through Friday between 7:30 a.m. and 7:45 p.m.
Eastern time or write to us at the address shown above. Thank you for your cooperation.

otherwise expend or conserve such monies?
