    Title: Certification of School Attendance--REPS, 21P-8926.
    OMB Control Number: 2900-0394.
    Type of Review: Extension of a currently approved collection.
    Abstract: VA Form 21P-0826 is primarily used to gather necessary

eligible under the REPS eligibility criteria. Without this information, 
determination of continued entitlement would not be possible. This is 
an extension with no substantive changes to the form. There has been no 
burden change since the last approval.
    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 89 FR 1147 on Tuesday, January 9, 2024,
