Title: Department of Veterans Affairs
(VA) Post-Separation Transition
Assistance Program (PSTAP)
Assessment Survey.
OMB Control Number: 2900—NEW.
Type of Review: New Collection.
Abstract: The PSTAP Assessment
Survey will be used by VA to assess
how the TAP training for Transitioning
Servicemembers (TSMs) prepares
Veterans for civilian life. This new
information collection request (ICR) will
be conducted once per year and is
designed as a longitudinal survey. In the
first year of data collection, the survey
will be fielded to all Veterans who meet
the criteria at the time of fielding of
having separated from the military at six
months, one year, and three years prior
to the date that surveys (first mailing
will solicit electronic responses) will be
mailed. Civilian life readiness will
measure domains of a TSM’s life
including employment,
entrepreneurship, mental/physical
health, social relationships, financial
situation, and housing. In addition, the
survey will assess if TSMs understand
and utilize their available VA benefits,
and which TAP curriculum modules
(tracks) are the most and least useful.
