    Authority: Public Law 104-13; 44 U.S.C. 3501-3521.
    Title: Application for Fee or Roster Personnel Designation.

    Abstract: VA Form 26-6681 solicits information on the fee personnel

to render an estimate of the reasonable value of a property, or of a 
specified type of property, within a stated area for the purpose of 
justifying the extension of credit to an eligible veteran (38 CFR 
36.4301). The fee appraiser's estimate of value is reviewed by a VA 
staff appraiser or lender's staff appraisal reviewer who uses the data 
to establish the VA reasonable value (38 U.S.C. 3710(b)(4), (5), (6) 
and 3731(f)(1)), which becomes the maximum loan guaranty amount an 
eligible veteran can obtain.
    Affected Public: Private Sector.
    Estimated Annual Burden: 160 hours.
    Estimated Average Burden per Respondent: 30 minutes.
    Frequency of Response: One time.
    Estimated Number of Respondents: 319 per year.

    By direction of the Secretary.
Dorothy Glasgow,
VA PRA Clearance Officer, (Alt.) Office of Enterprise and Integration/
Data Governance Analytics, Department of Veterans Affairs.
