Yes
Changing Regulations
In RIN 2900-AO73, VA proposes to amend its pension regulations to maintain the integrity of its needs-based pension program. VA has authority under 38 U.S.C. 501(a) to prescribe all rules and regulations which are necessary or appropriate to carry out the laws administered by VA. VA would amend its information collections consistent with RIN 2900-AO73. This rulemaking is largely in response to a Government Accountability Office (GAO) report, GAO-12-50, Veterans' Pension Benefits: Improvements Needed to Ensure only Qualified Veterans and Survivors Receive Benefits.
