BILLING CODE 4830-01-P DEPARTMENT OF VETERANS AFFAIRS [OMB Control No. 2900-0674] Agency Information Collection Activity Under OMB Review: Notice of Disagreement: Appeal to the Board of Veterans' Appeals AGENCY: Board of Veterans' Appeals, Department of Veterans Affairs. ACTION: Notice. SUMMARY: In compliance with the Paperwork Reduction Act
(PRA)of 1995, this notice announces that the Board of Veterans' Appeals (Board), Department of Veterans Affairs, will submit the collection of information abstracted below to the Office of Management and Budget
(OMB)for review and comment. The PRA submission describes the nature of the information collection and its expected cost and burden, and it includes the actual data collection instrument. DATES: Comments and recommendations for the proposed information collection should be sent by April 7, 2025. ADDRESSES: To submit comments and recommendations for the proposed information collection, please type the following link into your browser: *www.reginfo.gov/public/do/PRAMain,* select “Currently under Review—Open for Public Comments”, then search the list for the information collection by Title or “OMB Control No. 2900-0674.” FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: VA PRA information: Dorothy Glasgow, 202-461-1084, *VAPRA@va.gov* . SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: *Title:* Decision Review Request: Board Appeal (Notice of Disagreement) and Appeal to the Board of Veterans' Appeals, VA Form 10182 and VA Form 9. *OMB Control Number:* 2900-0674 *https://www.reginfo.gov/public/do/PRASearch* . *Type of Review:* Revision of a currently approved collection. *Abstract:* Appellate review of the denial of VA benefits may only be initiated by the filing of a Notice of Disagreement with the Board. 38 U.S.C. 7105(a). A *VA Form 10182* . *Decision Review Request: Board Appeal (Notice of Disagreement)* is required to initiate Board review of an appeal in the modernized review system as implemented by the Veterans Appeals Improvement and Modernization Act of 2017 (AMA). The *VA Form 9 Appeal to the Board of Veterans' Appeals* may be used to complete a legacy appeal to the Board. The completed form becomes the “substantive appeal” (or “formal appeal”), which is required by the pre-AMA version of 38 U.S.C. 7105(a) and (d)(3) to complete an appeal to the Board. Additionally, the proposed information collections allow for withdrawal of services by a representative, requests for changes in hearing dates and methods under 38 U.S.C. 7107, and motions for reconsideration pursuant to 38 CFR 7103(a). The Board is requesting to revise the currently approved OMB Control No. 2900-0674 as there has been a decrease in the estimated number of respondents and annual burden. There has been a decrease in the use of the *VA Form 9 Appeal to the Board of Veterans' Appeals,* as the *VA Form 10182 Decision Review Request: Board Appeal (Notice of Disagreement)* is required to initiate Board review of decisions issued on or after February 19, 2019. Consequently, the majority of incoming appeals at the Board are governed by the AMA; therefore, the estimated number of respondents who utilize the *VA Form 10182 Decision Review Request: Board Appeal (Notice of Disagreement)* has been adjusted accordingly. An agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to a collection of information unless it displays a currently valid OMB control number. The **Federal Register** Notice with a 60-day comment period soliciting comments on this collection of information was published at 89 FR 101691, December 16, 2024. *Affected Public:* Individuals and households. *Estimated Annual Burden:* 60,305 hours. *Estimated Average Burden per Respondent:* 30 minutes. *Frequency of Response:* Once. *Estimated Number of Respondents:* 119,800. *Authority:* 44 U.S.C. 3501 *et seq.* Shunda Willis, Acting, VA PRA Clearance Officer, (Alt.), Office of Enterprise and Integration, Data Governance Analytics, Department of Veterans Affairs.
