Program for Survivors).
OMB Control Number: 2900-0399 <a href="https://www.reginfo.gov/public/do/PRASearch">https://www.reginfo.gov/public/do/PRASearch</a>.
Type of Review: Extension of a previously approved collection.
Abstract: VA Form 21P-8938-1 is primarily used to verify that a
surviving child who is receiving REPS benefits based on school-child
status is in fact enrolled full-time in an approved school and is
otherwise eligible for continued benefits. VA Form 21P-8938-1 is
generated by VA's central computer system each March and sent to all
student beneficiaries. If the completed form is not received by the end
of May, the beneficiary is sent a system-generated due process letter
with another VA Form 21P-8938-1. No changes have been made to this
form. The respondent burden has remained the same.
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 40539, May 10, 2024, page 40539.
Affected Public: Individuals or Households.
Estimated Annual Burden: 300 hours.
Estimated Average Burden per Respondent: 20 minutes.
Frequency of Response: One time.
Estimated Number of Respondents: 1,200.
Authority: 44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.
