    Type of Review: Revision of a currently approved collection.
    Abstract: The VA uses information from the current collection at 
the beginning of the school term to ensure that advance payments have 
been delivered, and to determine whether the student has increased, 
reduced, or terminated training. School Certifying Officials (SCOs)

payment check is made to students upon registration for their period of 
enrollment. If this student fails to register within 30 days after the 
commencement date of the enrollment period, the advance payment check 
must be returned to the Department of the Treasury. Advance payments 
are not available under the Post-9/11 GI Bill (Chapter 33) benefit 
program.
    Affected Public: State, Local and Tribal Governments.
    Estimated Annual Burden: 23 hours.
    Estimated Average Burden Time per Respondent: 5 minutes.
    Frequency of Response: On occasion.
    Estimated Number of Respondents: 63.
