Privacy Act Notice: The VA will not disclose information collected on this form to any source other than what has been authorized under the Privacy
Act of 1974 or Title 38, Code of Federal Regulations 1.576 for routine uses (i.e., civil or criminal law enforcement, congressional communications,
epidemiological or research studies, the collection of money owed to the United States, litigation in which the United States is a party or has an
interest, the administration of VA programs and delivery of VA benefits, verification of identity and status, and personnel administration) as
identified in the VA system of records, 58VA21/22, Compensation, Pension, Education and Rehabilitation Records - VA, published in the Federal
Register. Your obligation to respond is mandatory. Giving us your and your veteran relatives' SSN account information is mandatory. Any persons,
including dependents and beneficiaries, who apply for or receive VA Compensation and Pension benefits are required to provide their SSN under
Title 38 USC 5101(c)(1). The VA will not deny an individual benefits for refusing to provide his or her SSN unless the disclosure of the SSN is
required by a Federal Statute of law in effect prior to January 1, 1975, and still in effect. The responses you submit are considered confidential (38
U.S.C. 5701). Information submitted is subject to verification through computer matching programs with other agencies.
Respondent Burden: We need this information to identify the benefit records VA maintains for you and your relatives in order to insure the security
and confidentiality of the records (5 U.S.C. 552a(e)(10)). Title 38, United States Code, allows us to ask for this information. We estimate that you
will need an average of 25 minutes to review the instructions, find the information, and complete this form. VA cannot conduct or sponsor a
collection of information unless a valid OMB control number is displayed. You are not required to respond to a collection of information if this
number is not displayed. Valid OMB control numbers can be located on the OMB Internet Page at www.whitehouse.gov/omb/library/OMBINV.
