delivery of VA benefits, verification of identity and status, and personnel administration) as identified in the VA system of records, 58VA21/22/28, Compensation,

unless the disclosure of the SSN is required by a Federal Statute of law in effect prior to January 1, 1975, and still in effect. The requested information is considered
relevant and necessary in order to appoint the appropriate fiduciary for a VA beneficiary. The responses you submit are considered confidential (38 U.S.C. 5701).

RESPONDENT BURDEN: We need this information to assess your qualification as a potential fiduciary (38 U.S.C. Chapters 55 and 61). Title 38, United States
Code, allows us to ask for this information, and complete this form. We estimate that you will need an average of 15 minutes to review the instructions, find the
information, and complete the form. VA cannot conduct or sponsor a collection of information unless a valid OMB control number is displayed. You are not required to
respond to a collection of information if this number is not displayed. Valid OMB control numbers can be located on the OMB Internet Page at

INSTRUCTIONS: All items are to be completed by the prospective fiduciary. Print all answers clearly. Your answer to every question is important to help us assess
your qualification as a potential fiduciary. If you do not know the answer, write "unknown." If you don't have complete identifying information for the beneficiary, VA
