SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title; Associated Form; and OMB Number: Secondary Dependency
Application; DD Form 137; OMB Control Number 0730-0014.
Type of Request: Revision.
Number of Respondents: 20,000.
Responses per Respondent: 1.
Annual Responses: 20,000.
Average Burden per Response: 60 minutes.
Annual Burden Hours: 20,000.
Needs and Uses: The information collection requirement is necessary
to certify dependency or obtain information to determine entitlement to
the following entitlements: Basic Allowance for Housing, Uniformed
Services Identification and Privilege card, travel allowances, morale,
welfare, and recreation privileges, and commissary and exchange.
Information regarding a claimed individual is provided by the service
member or other sponsor. A medical doctor or psychiatrist, college
administrator, or a dependent's employer may need to provide
information for claims. Pursuant to 37 United States Code (U.S.C.) 401,
403, 476, and 10 U.S.C. 1072 and 1076, the sponsor must provide more
than one half of the claimed dependent's monthly expenses. DoD
Financial Management Regulation (DoD FMR) 7000.14-R, Vol. 7A defines
dependency and directs that dependency be proven. Dependency claim
examiners use the information from the DD Form 137 to determine benefit
eligibility. The new, consolidated DD Form 137 is in direct support of
the updated DoD FMR Volume 7A, chapter 26: ``Housing Allowances,''
which published in May 2024. Since DoD adopted the definition of
support (October 2022) consistent with Treasury regulations, tax
returns can be utilized as evidence of support. However, the Secondary
Dependent must still meet the other definitions of a ``dependent''
under 10 U.S.C. 1072. If the member refuses or is unable to provide a
tax return, the member can complete a worksheet (similar to that used
by the IRS) that substantiates support.
Affected Public: Individuals or households.
Frequency: On occasion.
Respondent's Obligation: Voluntary.
OMB Desk Officer: Ms. Jasmeet Seehra.
