VA Form 21-0788, associated with the final rule RIN#2900-AP67, will be used to determine whether benefits may be apportioned and, if so, the amount. A veteran’s benefits may be paid to their spouse and children if the veteran is incarcerated or is deemed incompetent and hospitalized at government expense. This form will be completed to obtain the information needed to determine whether benefits may be apportioned and the amount payable. Without this collection of information, VA would be unable to properly authorize apportionments of compensation and pension benefits.
