Abstract: The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) through its
Veterans Health Administration (VHA) administers an integrated program
of benefits and services, established by law for veterans, service
personnel, and their dependents and/or beneficiaries. Information is
requested by this form under the authority of 38 U.S.C., Section 1162,
Clothing Allowance, which provides authority for the Secretary to pay a
clothing allowance to veterans who, because of a service-connected
disability, wear or use a prosthetic or orthopedic appliance (including
a wheelchair) which tends to wear out or tear clothing or uses
medication that causes irreparable damage to the outer garments.
Entitlement to this benefit is granted by 38 CFR 3.810, Clothing
Allowance, upon application by the eligible individual. VA Form 10-8678
is used to collect the necessary information to determine if the
veteran has established entitlement to a clothing allowance payment.
An agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required
to respond to a collection of information unless it displays a
