The Department of Veterans Affairs announced a notice about collecting information under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995. The notice outlines that the Veterans Benefits Administration will submit information to the Office of Management and Budget for review, with details on cost and burden. The information is collected using VA Form 21P-509 to determine dependency of a veteran's parents or for death compensation and is required to be submitted under a valid OMB control number. They are seeking public comments on this collection within 30 days of publication.
Simple Explanation
The Department of Veterans Affairs is checking if certain forms needed to help veterans' parents get benefits are easy to fill out and worth the time. They're asking people if they have thoughts about this, like if the forms are too tricky or confusing, and want feedback soon.
