Standard Form 1152 Revised June 2002

IMPORTANT NOTICE ­ ORDER OF PRECEDENCE
If there is no designated beneficiary alive at the time of your death, any unpaid compensation owed you (that becomes payable after you die) will be paid to the first person or persons in the order listed below who are alive on the date that entitlement to the payment occurs. 1. To your widow or widower. 2. If neither of the above, to your child or children in equal shares. The share of any deceased child is distributed to the descendants of that child. 3. If none of the above, to your parents in equal shares or the entire amount to the surviving parent. 4. If none of the above, to the duly appointed legal representative of your estate. If there is none, to the person or persons entitled under the laws of the State or other domicile where you lived. You do not need to designate a beneficiary unless you want to name some person or persons not listed above or you want the payment to be made in a different order.

INSTRUCTIONS
1. The examples on the back of the first page of this form may be helpful to you in filling out this form. 2. Except for signatures, you should type or print all entries in ink (typing is preferred). You should use this form for any designation of beneficiary or beneficiaries. The form must be signed and witnessed. 3. The form should be free of erasures or alterations to avoid a possible legal contest after your death. 4. You do not need to fill out a new form when your name or address changes or when the name or address of your beneficiary changes. 5. You must complete the form in duplicate and file it with your employing agency. To be valid, your agency must receive the completed form prior to your death. The duplicate will be annotated and returned to you as evidence that the original was received and filed with your agency. We suggest that you file the duplicate with your important papers. 6. You can cancel any prior Designation of Beneficiary form without naming a new beneficiary by completing a new form and inserting "Cancel prior designations" in the space provided for the name of beneficiary. This will change the payment to the order of payment described under "Order of Precedence." 7. This designation remains valid unless (a) you change or revoke it, (b) you transfer to another agency, or (c) you leave and then are reemployed by the Federal Government. If you are covered by (b) or (c), you must fill out a new form if you want to change the order of payment described under "Order of Precedence." NOTE: If this form is not available, any designation, change or cancellation of beneficiary that is witnessed and filed according to these instructions will be valid.
This form is not to be confused with Standard Form 2808, Designation of Beneficiary, Civil Service Retirement System,
Standard Form 2823, Designation of Beneficiary, Federal Employees' Group Life Insurance Program, or
Standard Form 3102, Designation of Beneficiary, Federal Employees Retirement System.


Privacy Act Statement
Solicitation of this information is authorized by the Code of Federal Regulations, Part 178, Subpart B. The information you furnish will be used to determine the amount, validity, and the person(s) entitled to the unpaid compensation of a deceased Federal employee. The information may be shared and is subject to verification, via paper, electronic media, or through the use of computer matching programs to obtain information necessary for determination of entitlement 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 the civil or criminal law. Public Law 104-134 (April 26, 1996) requires that any person doing business with the Federal government furnish a Social Security Number or tax identification number. This is an amendment to title 31, Section 7701. Failure to furnish the requested information may delay or make it impossible for us to determine eligibility of payments.
