    OMB Number: 1505-0225.
    Type of Review: Renewal.
    Title: Information on Processing Garnishment Orders.
    Description: On April 19, 2010 Treasury, SSA, VA, RRB and OPM 
published a proposed rule to implement statutory restriction on the 
garnishment of Federal benefits. The Agencies took this action to 
alleviate the hardships being experienced by recipients of Federal 
benefit payments, which are statutorily exempt from garnishment, and to 
establish procedures for financial institutions to follow so that they 
are not compelled to freeze funds in an account as a result of the 
receipt of a court ordered garnishment. This collection of information 
is needed so that Treasury can gain a thorough understanding of the 
existing processing of court ordered garnishments served specifically 
on credit unions. The information obtained is necessary to devise a 
workable solution that balances the interests of individuals receiving 
federal benefit payments, which are statutorily exempt from 
garnishment, and financial institutions which provide deposit accounts.
    Respondents: Businesses or other for-profit institutions, and not-
for-profit institutions.
    Estimated Total Reporting Burden: 260 hours.
