    Description: The Office of Workers' Compensation Programs 
administers the Longshore and Harbor Workers' Compensation Act. The Act 
provides for continuation of death benefits for a child or certain 
other surviving dependents after the age of 18 (to age 23) if the 
dependent qualifies as a student as defined in Section 2 (18) of the 
Act. Regulation 20 CFR 702.121 addresses the use of forms for the 
reporting of required information. The LS-266 is submitted by the 
parent or guardian of the dependent for whom continuation of benefits 
is sought. The statements contained on the form must be verified by an 
official of the educational institution. The information is used by the 
Department of Labor to determine whether a continuation of the benefits 
is justified.

Darrin A. King,
Acting Departmental Clearance Officer.
