Privacy Act Information: VA will not disclose information collected on this form to any source other than what has been authorized under the Privacy Act of 1974 or
Title 38, Code of Federal Regulations 1.576 for routine uses (i.e., civil or criminal law enforcement, congressional communications, epidemiological or research
studies, the collection of money owed to the United States, litigation in which the United States is a party or has an interest, the administration of VA programs and
delivery of VA benefits, verification of identity and status, and personnel administration) as identified in the VA system of records, 58VA21/22/28, Compensation,
Pension, Education, and Vocational Rehabilitation and Employment Records - VA, published in the Federal Register. Your obligation to respond is required to obtain
or retain benefits. Giving us your and your dependents' SSN account information is mandatory. Applicants are required to provide their SSN and the SSN of any
dependents for whom benefits are claimed under Title 38 USC 5101 (c)(1). The VA will not deny an individual benefits for refusing to provide his or her SSN unless
the disclosure of the SSN is required by Federal Statute of law in effect prior to January 1, 1975, and still in effect. Information that you furnish may be utilized in
computer matching programs with other Federal or state agencies for the purpose of determining your eligibility to receive VA benefits, as well as to collect any amount
owed to the United States by virtue of your participation in any benefit program administered by the Department of Veterans Affairs.
RESPONDENT BURDEN: We need this information to determine marital status and eligibility for an additional allowance for dependents under 38 U.S.C. 1115. Title
38, United States Code, allows us to ask for this information. We estimate that you will need an average of 15 minutes to review the instructions, find the information
and complete this form. VA cannot conduct or sponsor a collection of information unless a valid OMB control number is displayed. You are not required to respond to a
collection of information if this number is not displayed. Valid OMB control numbers can be located on the OMB Internet Page at
