OPM collects and maintains record-level data on job applicants, Federal employees, annuitants, and other beneficiaries of OPM's programs and services. Research Agreements for the Use of OPM Record-Level Data is OPM's proposed mechanism to share data to further policy-relevant Federal workforce research. OPM will collect information through a Research Agreement Application to enable OPM to determine whether providing record level data to a research entity is in the public interest.

The information collection was previously published in the **Federal Register** on November 25, 2022, at 87 FR 72518, allowing for a 60-day public comment period. OPM received one public comment that was not relevant to the proposed collection. The purpose of this notice is to allow an additional 30 days for public comments. Therefore, we invite comments that: 1. Evaluate whether the proposed collection of information is necessary for the proper performance of the functions of the agency, including whether the information will have practical utility; 2. Evaluate the accuracy of the agency's estimate of the burden of the proposed collection of information, including the validity of the methodology and assumptions used; 3. Enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to be collected; and 4. Minimize the burden of the collection of information on those who are to respond, including through the use of appropriate automated, electronic, mechanical, or other technological collection techniques or other forms of information technology, *e.g.,* permitting electronic submissions of responses.
