Sec. 880.302  Payments of CSRS or FERS benefits.

    (a) OPM will pay an amount equal to the survivor annuity that would 
be payable as CSRS or FERS survivor annuity to an account in a financial 
institution designated (under electronic funds transfer regulations in 
part 209 or part 210 of Title 31, Code of Federal Regulations) by an 
individual who, if the missing annuitant were dead, would be entitled to 
receive payment of a survivor annuity.
    (b) If more than one individual would qualify for survivor annuity 
payments in the event of the missing annuitant's death, OPM will make 
separate payments in the same manner as if the missing annuitant were 
dead.
