Title: Application of Surviving 

Spouse or Child for REPS Benefit 

(Restored Entitlement Program for 

Survivors). 

OMB Control Number: 2900–0390. 

Type of Review: Revision of a 

currently approved collection. 

Abstract: VA Form 21P–8924 is 

primarily used to gather the necessary 

information to determine a claimant’s 

eligibility for REPS benefits. 

Respondents are surviving spouses or 

schoolchildren who are establishing 

eligibility to REPS benefits. The 

beneficiary will complete this 

information collection and return to the 

VA by mail or fax. Once the form is 

received by the VA, the information is 

reviewed to determine whether the 

beneficiary will establish entitlement or 

continued entitlement to REPS benefits. 

The information on the form is 

necessary to determine if the applicant 

meets REPS eligibility criteria. Without 

this information, determination of 

entitlement would not be possible. This 

is a revision of a currently approved 

collection as the respondent burden has 

decreased. 

Affected Public: Individuals and 

households. 

Estimated Annual Burden: 14 hours. 

Estimated Average Burden per 

Respondent: 20 minutes. 

Frequency of Response: One time. 

Estimated Number of Respondents: 

44. 

By direction of the Secretary.
