I, the person identified above, designate the beneficiary or beneficiaries
named below to receive any lump-sum benefit which may become
payable under the Civil Service Retirement System (CSRS) after my
death. I understand that this designation of beneficiary will not affect
the rights of any survivors who may qualify for annuity benefits after my
death, cancels any previous designation of beneficiary, and remains in
effect until I cancel it in writing.
I direct, unless otherwise indicated below, that if more than one beneficiary is
named, the share of any beneficiary who may predecease me or who may be
disqualified for any other reason shall be distributed equally among the
stated beneficiaries or entirely to the survivor. If none of the beneficiaries are
alive and eligible to receive payment when a lump sum becomes payable,
this designation is void and payment will be made according to the order of
precedence set by law.

We will pay to the person you designate, even if that person's name or relationship to you changes after you file this designation. For example, suppose you
designate your spouse and then you two divorce and you marry someone else. We will pay any lump sum to your former spouse unless you submit another
designation to cancel prior designations or to designate who we are to pay.
We will write to the address you provide here to contact the person you designate. However, that person is obligated to get in touch with us after your death to
ask us to make payment.

Beneficiary, Federal Employees' Retirement System; TSP-3, Federal Retirement Thrift Savings Plan Designation of Beneficiary; or SF 1152, Designation of

Privacy Act Statement
Solicitation of this information is authorized by the Civil Service Retirement law (Chapter 83, title 5, U.S. Code). The information you furnish will be used to
determine who will receive a lump-sum benefit in the event of your death. The information may be shared and is subject to verification, via paper, electronic
media, or through the use of computer matching programs, with national, state, local or other charitable or social security administrative agencies in order to
determine benefits under their programs, to obtain information necessary for determination of benefits under this program, or to report income for tax purposes. It
may also be shared and verified, as noted above, with law enforcement agencies when they are investigating a violation or potential violation of civil or criminal
law. Executive Order 9397 (November 22, 1943) allows Federal agencies to use the Social Security Number as an individual identifier to distinguish between
people with the same or similar names. Failure to furnish your Social Security Number may make it impossible for us to associate this designation of beneficiary
with your records.
Public Burden Statement
We estimate providing this information takes an average of 15 minutes per response to complete, including the time for reviewing instructions, getting the needed
data, and reviewing the completed form. Send comments regarding our estimate or any other aspect of SF 2808, including suggestions for reducing completion
time, to the Office of Personnel Management (OPM), Retirement Services Publications Team (3206-0142), Washington, D.C. 20415-3430. The OMB number
3206-0142 is currently valid. OPM may not collect this information, and you are not required to respond, unless this number is displayed.
