Title: Student Beneficiary Report— 

Restored Entitlement Program for 

Survivors (REPS) (VA Form 21P–8938– 

1). 

OMB Control Number: 2900–0399. 

Type of Review: Reinstatement with 

change of a previously approved 

collection. 

Abstract: A claimant’s eligibility for 

needs-based pension programs are 

determined in part by countable family 

income and certain deductible 

expenses. Restored Entitlement Program 

for Survivors (REPS) is a benefit payable 

to certain surviving spouses and 

dependent children of deceased 

Veterans who died in service prior to 

August 13, 1981 or died as a result of 

a service-connected disability incurred 

or aggravated prior to August 13, 1981. 

In these situations, VBA uses VA Form 

21P–8938–1 Student Beneficiary 

Report—Restored Entitlement Program 

for Survivors (REPS), to verify 

beneficiaries receiving REPS benefits 

based on school-aged child status, are in 

fact enrolled full-time in an approved 

school and are otherwise eligible for 

continue benefits under REPS. Without 

this information, determination of 

eligibility would not be possible. 

Affected Public: Individuals and 

households. 

Estimated Annual Burden: 300 hours. 

Estimated Average Burden per 

Respondent: 15 minutes. 

Frequency of Response: Annually. 

Estimated Number of Respondents: 

1,200. 

By direction of the Secretary.

VA PRA Clearance Officer, (Alternate) Office 

of Enterprise and Integration/Data
