(2) the accuracy of VBA’s estimate of the
burden of the proposed collection of
information; (3) ways to enhance the
quality, utility, and clarity of the
information to be collected; and (4)
ways to minimize the burden of the
collection of information on
respondents, including through the use
of automated collection techniques or
the use of other forms of information
technology.
Authority: 38 U.S.C. 101 and 6104, 38
CFR 3.40.
Title: Supplement to VA Forms 21–
526EZ, 21P–534EZ, and 21P–535 (For
Philippine Claims) (VA Form 21–4169).
OMB Control Number: 2900–0094.
Type of Review: Revision of a
currently approved collection.
Abstract: VA Form 21–4169 is
primarily used to gather the necessary
information to determine whether a
claimant’s service qualifies as service in
the Commonwealth Army of the
Philippines or recognized guerrilla
organizations. The form is used for the
sole purpose of collecting the
information needed to determine
eligibility for benefits based on such
service, including service information,
proof of service, place of residence, and
membership in pro-Japanese, proGerman, or anti-American Filipino
organizations. Without this information,
determination of entitlement would not
be possible. No changes have been made
to this form. The respondent burden has
decreased due to the estimated number
of receivables averaged over the past
year.
Affected Public: Individuals or
Households.
Estimated Annual Burden: 212 hours.
Estimated Average Burden per
Respondent: 15 minutes.
Frequency of Response: One time.
Estimated Number of Respondents:
849 per year.
By direction of the Secretary.

VA PRA Clearance Officer, Office of
Enterprise and Integration/Data Governance
