| Summary | The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) proposes to amend regulations under the Veteran Readiness and Employment (VR&E) program to ensure veterans' requests to forgo, suspend, reduce, or terminate their benefits and services may be processed timely and without unnecessary delays. The current regulation requires VR&E to provide at least 30 days advance notice and opportunity for response before taking such actions, even in cases where VR&E is acting on a veteran's request. VA also proposes to clarify existing regulatory exceptions to advance notice to reduce or eliminate potential overpayments for veterans. |
