Abstract:
As the purpose of RIN # 2900-AP86, Active Service Pay, is to amend the adjudication regulations and permit VA to suspend disability compensation payments upon receipt of notice from the Department of Defense, VA will no longer need our computer-generated system to release the scheduled batch print of VAF 21-8951 and wait the 60-day due process period. However, VA Form 21-8951-2 will still be made available for usage should the beneficiary/reservist need to report the number of days he/she trained and to file a waiver of VA disability benefits. With the removal of the computer generated VA Form 21-8951, VA is requesting a revision to correct the estimate of burden.
