    OMB Control Number: 2900-0101.
    Type of Review: Extension of a previously approved collection.
    Abstract: A claimant's eligibility for Pension is determined, in 
part, by countable family income and net worth. Any individual who has 
applied for, or receives, VA Pension or Parents' Dependency and 
Indemnity Compensation (DIC) must promptly notify the VA in writing of 
any change in entitlement factors. VBA uses Eligibility Verification 
Reports (EVRs) to receive income and net worth information from Pension 
and Parents DIC claimants and beneficiaries to evaluate eligibility for 
benefits. The reported information can result in increased or decreased 
benefits. Typically, the claimants and beneficiaries utilize the form 
to notify the VA of changes in income and net worth, though the forms 
could be used to reopen a claim for benefits in limited circumstances. 
This is a request for an extension of the EVR collections with no 
substantive changes.
    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 Notice with a 
60-day comment period soliciting comments on this collection of 
information was published at 89 FR 14154 on Monday, February 26, 2024, 
pages 14154 and 14155.
    Affected Public: Individuals or households.
    Estimated Annual Burden: 34,500 hours.
    Estimated Average Burden per Respondent: 30 minutes.
    Frequency of Response: One time.
    Estimated Number of Respondents: 69,000.

    By direction of the Secretary.
