SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Authority: 38 U.S.C. 1310 & 1315.
Title: Statement of Person Claiming to Have Stood in Relation to
Parent (VA Form 21P-524).
OMB Control Number: 2900-0059.
Type of Review: Revision of a currently approved collection.
Abstract: 38 U.S.C 1315 established Dependency Indemnity
Compensation to Parents (known as Parents' DIC). Parent's DIC is a
monthly benefit payable to the parent(s) of a deceased Veteran. The
payable monthly benefit is based on the parent's (parents') annual
income. Additional funds are payable to the parent(s) if they are in a
patient in a nursing home, blind, so nearly blind or significantly
disabled as to need or require the regular aid and attendance of
another person.
38 CFR 3.59 defines the term parent as `` . . . a natural mother or
father (including the mother of an illegitimate child or the father of
an illegitimate child if the usual family relationship existed), mother
or father through adoption, or a person who for a period of not less
than 1 year stood in the relationship of a parent to a Veteran at any
time before his or her entry into active service.''
The information collected will be used by VBA to evaluate a
claimant's parental relationship to a deceased Veteran when the
claimant is not the Veteran's natural mother or father or adopted
mother or father.
This is a revision of a currently approved collection. The burden
has decreased due to the number of receivables over the past year with
no substantive changes.
An agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required
to respond to a collection of information unless it displays a
currently valid OMB control number. The Federal Register Notice with a
60-day comment period soliciting comments on this collection of
information was published at 88 FR 144 on July 28, 2023, pages 48965
and 48966.

Affected Public: Individuals or Households.
Estimated Annual Burden: 42.
Estimated Average Burden per Respondent: 2 Hours (120) minutes.
