SUMMARY: In accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (Pub. 
L. 104-13, May 22, 1995), this notice announces the Office of Personnel 
Management's (OPM) plan to submit to the Office of Management and 
Budget (OMB) a request for clearance of a revised information 
collection, Standard Form (SF) 15, Application for 10-Point Veteran 
Preference. The SF-15 is used by agencies, OPM examining offices, and 
agency appointing officials to adjudicate individuals' claims for 
veterans' preference in accordance with the Veterans' Preference Act of 
1944. OPM's revisions will (1) remove obsolete items; and (2) update 
language as a result of the enactment of the VOW (Veterans Opportunity 
to Work) to Hire Heroes Act of 2011 (Pub. L. 112-56). The SF 15 will be 
revised to create a PDF fillable form for applicant use. The only 
acceptable version of this form will be as stated above, but consistent 
with current practice, the form may be submitted electronically or in 
hard copy. Upon publication, please destroy any prior versions you have 
in stock. The SF 15 will be obtainable on the OPM Web site at 
www.opm.gov/forms/html.sf.asp.

DATES: The revised form is effective September 30, 2013.
