Title 38 U.S.C. Section 4322 of USERRA authorizes the Secretary of Labor (through the Veterans' Employment and Training Service) to investigate claims by individuals who believe their USERRA rights have been violated. The information is used to determine eligibility of veterans complaints to reemployment rights they are seeking as well as to state alleged violations by employers of the pertinent statutes and request assistance in obtaining appropriate reemployment benefits. The Veterans Employment Opportunities Act (VEOA) of 1998, P.L. 105-339, 112 Stat. 3182, contained in Title 5 U.S.C. § 3330a-3330(b), provides assistance to preference eligible individuals who believe their rights under the veterans' preference (VP) laws and the Veterans Benefit Improvement Act of 2008 (Public Law No: 110-389) have been violated. Section 3 of the VEOA provides the Secretary of Labor similar authority to investigate complaints brought by preference eligibles. The collection instrument completed by claimants contains the information required and needed for the Department to determine initial eligibility of the claimant.
