The Office of the Under Secretary of Defense for Personnel and Readiness is seeking public comments on a proposed information collection under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995. The collection concerns the Combat Related Special Compensation (CRSC) Program, which helps determine eligibility for benefits and reconsideration requests if previously denied. The information collection involves forms DD 2860 and DD 3210 and is expected to involve 22,500 respondents, each taking about 15 minutes to complete. Public comments on this proposal can be submitted by March 7, 2025, through the Federal eRulemaking Portal or by mail.
Simple Explanation
The Office of the Under Secretary of Defense wants to know what people think about how they collect information to help decide if some military people can get special benefits. They are asking people to tell them if they think this is important, how they can collect this information better, and if it takes too much time or effort to do so.
