DEPARTMENT OF VETERANS AFFAIRS
[OMB Control No. 2900-0368]
Agency Information Collection Activities Under OMB Review
AGENCY: Veterans Benefits Administration, Department of Veterans
Affairs.
ACTION: Notice.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: In compliance with the Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA) of 1995
(44 U.S.C., 3501 et seq.), this notice announces that the Veterans
Benefits Administration (VBA), Department of Veterans Affairs, has
submitted the collection of information abstracted below to the Office
of Management and Budget (OMB) for review and comment. The PRA
submission describes the nature of the information collection and its
expected cost and burden; it includes the actual data collection
instrument.
DATES: Comments must be submitted on or before January 24, 2000.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION OR A COPY OF THE SUBMISSION CONTACT: Denise
McLamb, Information Management Service (045A4), Department of Veterans
Affairs, 810 Vermont Avenue, NW, Washington, DC 20420, (202) 273-8030
or FAX (202) 273-5981. Please refer to ``OMB Control No. 2900-0368.''
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title: Monthly Statement of Wages Paid to Trainee VA, Form 28-1917.
OMB Control Number: 2900-0368.
Type of Review: Reinstatement, without change, of a previously
approved collection for which approval has expired.
Abstract: Establishments training veterans on the job or in
apprenticeship programs use VA Form 28-1917, to report each veteran's
wages during the preceding month. The veteran's case manager reviews
the form and uses the information to determine whether the veteran is
receiving the appropriate wage increases and to ensure the veteran is
receiving the correct rate of subsistence allowance. Without this
information, there would be a high risk of large overpayments of VA
vocational rehabilitation benefits to this class of trainees.
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 on September 20, 1999 at page 50869.
Affected Public: Business or other for-profit, Individuals or
households, Not-for-profit institutions.
Estimated Annual Burden: 1,800 hours.
Estimated Average Burden Per Respondent: 30 minutes.
Frequency of Response: Monthly.
Estimated Number of Respondents: 3,600.
Send comments and recommendations concerning any aspect of the
information collection to VA's OMB Desk Officer, Allison Eydt, OMB
Human Resources and Housing Branch, New Executive Office Building, Room
10235, Washington, DC 20503 (202) 395-4650. Please refer to ``OMB
Control No. 2900-0368'' in any correspondence.
Dated: December 3, 1999.
By direction of the Secretary.
