OMB Control Number: 2900–0101.
Type of Review: Revision of a
currently approved collection.
Abstract: Information is requested by
this form under the authority of 38
U.S.C. 1506. Regulatory authority is
found in 38 CFR 3.277. A claimant’s
eligibility for pension is determined, in
part, by countable family income and
net worth. Any individual who has
applied for, or receives, VA Pension or
Parents’ Dependency and Indemnity
Compensation (DIC) must promptly
notify VA in writing of any change in
entitlement factors.
VBA uses Eligibility Verification
Reports to receive income and net worth
information from Pension and Parents
DIC claimants and beneficiaries to
evaluate eligibility to benefits. The
reported information can result in
increased or decreased benefits.
Typically, claimants and beneficiaries
utilize the form to inform VA of changes
in their income or net worth, though the
forms could also be used to reopen a
claim for benefits in limited
circumstances.
Affected Public: Individuals and
households.
Estimated Annual Burden: 34,500
hours.
Estimated Average Burden per
Respondent: 30 minutes.
Frequency of Response: Once.
Estimated Number of Respondents:
69,000.
