Abstract:
Public Law 109-461 provided permanent authority for VA’s Homeless Providers Grant and Per Diem Program for homeless Veterans. Funds appropriated to the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) for this program are expected to be significantly less than the total amount requested by applicants. Information must be collected to determine which applicants are eligible, and to prioritize applications for determining who will be awarded funds. VA does not require applicants to use a VA Form to respond to the collection of information. Rather, VA requires applicants to respond to the collection of information as published in the Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) in standard business format. VA provides the outline for the collection in the NOFO and uses the standard business format collections to evaluate applicants for all the grant programs authorized under the statutory authority for VA to make homeless grants. Updates to the VA Homeless Providers Grant and Per Diem Program were published in a proposed rule in 2017 and made final in 2021 -- the below 60-day and 30-day notice citations correspond to the proposed rule and final rule citations for RIN 2900-AP54. The comments received in response to the proposed rule are thoroughly discussed and adjudicated in the text of the final rule. This ICR has been submitted this way because there is no proposed rule ICR reference number to use as a basis for a final rule submission. When VHA attempted to submit the final rule and reference RIN 2900-AP54, the ROCIS system would only allow a request for "Emergency" clearance, instead of a regular 3-year PRA clearance.

Short Statement:
Burden hours and respondent burden account for BLS annual wage adjustments. Also, the estimated burden accounts for the addition of the GPD Case Management grants (38 CFR 61.90-98, adopted as a final rule on 6/26/2019) and for the sunset of Technical Assistance grants. Compliance reports no longer have an associated burden. Compliance information is captured elsewhere and therefore is not repeated in order to avoid duplication.
