VA compensation and pension programs require current information to determine eligibility for benefits. VA Form 21-8960 solicits information that is needed to determine continued benefit eligibility for schoolchildren between the ages of 18 and 23. If the collection were not conducted or were conducted less frequently, VA would be unable to verify continued entitlement in a timely manner, and increased overpayments would result.
