obtain approval from the Office of

or sponsor. This request for comment is
being made pursuant to Section

With respect to the following

Benefits Administration (VBA) invites
comments on: (1) Whether the proposed
collection of information is necessary
for the proper performance of VBA’s
functions, including whether the
information will have practical utility;
(2) the accuracy of VBA’s estimate of the
burden of the proposed collection of
information; (3) ways to enhance the
quality, utility, and clarity of the
information to be collected; and (4)
ways to minimize the burden of the
collection of information on
respondents, including through the use

the use of other forms of information

31—Veteran Readiness and
Employment), VA Form 28–1905r.

Type of Review: Request for approval
of a new collection.
Abstract: A claimant will use VA
Form 28–1905r, Receipt of Supplies
(Chapter 31—Veteran Readiness and
Employment), to verify that the supplies
and/or equipment provided as part of a
rehabilitation program under 38 U.S.C.
Chapter 31 have been received and are
in good condition. The VR&E program
subsequently uses the information on
this form to justify processing payments

3104(a)(7). Without the information
gathered on this form, the VR&E
program would be unable to verify that
the claimant received the supplies and/

inaccurate payments being rendered.
Affected Public: Individuals and
households.
Estimated Annual Burden: 4,667
hours.

program for wartime Veterans, who are
aged 65 or older or have a permanent
and total non-service-connected
disability and limited income and net
worth. Eligibility is determined based
on the income of and asset amounts for
the Veteran and their spouse. A
Veteran’s or surviving spouses’ rate of
Improved Pension is determined by
family income. Normally, the income of
children who are members of the
household is included in this
determination. However, children’s
income may be excluded if it is
unavailable or if consideration of that
income would cause hardship. 38 U.S.C.
1521(h) and 1541(g) provide the
authority for the exclusion of children’s
income based on unavailability or
hardship. VA Form 21P–0571,
Application for Exclusion of Children’s
Income, is used for the sole purpose of
collecting the information needed to
determine if the children’s income is
available to the beneficiary, and if it
would case a hardship to consider their
income.
An agency may not conduct or
sponsor, and a person is not required to

unless it displays a currently valid OMB
