have no other special eligibility, are
eligible to receive VA health care at no
cost. Title 26 U.S.C. 6103 (l)(7) of the
Internal Revenue Code and 38 U.S.C.
5317 establish authority for VA to verify
Veterans’ gross household income
information against records maintained
by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS)
and Social Security Administration
(SSA) when that information indicates
the Veteran is eligible for cost-free VA
health care.
This information collection is
necessary for HEC’s Income Verification
Division (IVD) to verify the income of
Veterans and spouses. It consists of VA
Forms 10–301, 10–302, 10–303 and 10–
304. HEC IVD sends Veterans, and their
spouses, individual letters and forms to
confirm income information reported by
IRS and SSA. HEC does not change the
Veteran’s copay status until information
supplied by IRS and SSA has been
independently verified, either by the
Veteran or through appropriate due
process procedures. This collection has
been revised by removing VA Form 10–
302A because all relevant information
can be reported on VA Form 10–302.
There is a reduction in the burden hours
due to the removal of VA Form 10–302A
from the collection.

households.
