If the whereabouts of a retired staff member receiving a monthly or partial monthly pension or a survivor receiving monthly bereavement compensation or survivor annuity are unkown or the disbursing agency is unable to contact the person, payment of the pension, bereavement compensation, survivor annuity shall be suspended, and the institution hosting the preferential-interest savings deposit shall be notified to simultaneously suspend payment of the preferential deposit interest. The payment will subsequently be made up in accordance with regulations only after the retired staff member or survivor has personally made an application.
