Burden Reduction Due to:

Short Statement: VBA is revising the form to collect information for a single Veteran. Previously, the information of up to fifteen Veterans could have been collected on the form. This change is being implemented to improve claims processing efficiency, to better protect Veterans’ Personally Identifiable Information, and to improve VBA’s ability to account for payments made to State Veterans’ cemeteries. This change caused the following: First, the estimated completion time per response was reduced to five minutes from thirty minutes. Second, the number of annual responses increased from 3,100 to 46,500. The combined effect is a change in requested burden hours from to 3,875 from 1,550.

Annual Cost to Federal Government: $1,386,320
