CFR 21.4260. In order for a review and
decision to be made, the VA needs
supporting information from a foreign
educational institution. The Application
for Approval of a Program in a Foreign
Country, VA Form 22–0976 OMB ICR
#2900–0853 is being submitted as a
‘‘Revision’’. We are changing the
formatting of the form, as well as
changing most of the existing questions
to be written in the form of a statement.
There is no change to the current
burden as a result of making these
revisions.
Currently, the VA Form 22–0976
questions are written to solicit YES/NO
responses regarding compliance to the
current and new provisions established
for foreign institutions. We believe the
questions should be instead written and
displayed in the form of a statement to
indicate the VA requirements necessary
for the achievement of compliance for
foreign institutions.
Public Law 116–135, Johnny Isakson
and David P. Roe, M.D. Veterans Health
Care and Benefits Improvement Act of
2020 amended a number of VA benefits
that requires the revision of VA Form
22–0976 to comply with these changes.
The VA Form 22–0976 is the official
application that all foreign institutions
outside of the United States must use to
formally request foreign program
approval for GI Bill benefits from VA.
The current form is inadequate to
comply with both the current and new
changes in the law. Therefore, the
purpose of revising VA Form 22–0976 is
to support the provisions of Public Law
116–135, and the Veterans Benefits and
Transition Act of 2018, Public Law 115–
407 necessary in order for foreign
institutions to acknowledge and
adhered to the requirement of Section
104 of this law. The provisions of this
law require foreign institutions to allow
eligible individuals to stay enrolled in
courses of education pending the receipt
of educational assistance from
Department of Veterans Affairs. The
institution’s policy must ensure that
they will not impose any penalty,
including the assessment of late fees,
the denial of access to classes, libraries,
or other institutional facilities, or make
it a requirement that a covered
individual borrow additional funds
because of the individual’s inability to
meet his or her financial obligations to
the institution due to the delayed
disbursement funding from VA under
chapter 31 or 33.
The purpose of revising this form also
supports the provisions of Isakson and
ROE, Public Law 116–315, Sections
1019 and 1020. Section 1019 requires
schools and training programs to be
financially responsible (School

Liability), instead of the student, for
payments which are directly paid to an
educational institution pursuant to the
Post-9/11 GI Bill, (i.e., payments paid to
an educational institution pursuant to
the Yellow Ribbon GI Education
Enhancement program and the Advance
payments of the initial educational
assistance to an institution.). Section
1020 limits the type of Advertising,
Sales, and Marketing that schools can
conduct and remain eligible for GI Bill
funds. This section would also create a
tiered penalty system against
institutions that do not comply with the
law and set up a mechanism for
institutions to work with the SAAs and
VA on coming back into compliance,
and for institutions to not engage in
advertising and/or enrollment practices
of any type, which are erroneous,
deceptive, or misleading either by actual
statement, omission, or intimidation.
An agency may not conduct or
sponsor, and a person is not required to
respond to a collection of information
unless it displays a currently valid OMB
control number. The Federal Register

of information was published at 87 FR
