Title: Department of Veterans Affairs
(VA) Post-Separation Transition
Assistance Program (TAP) Assessment
Longitudinal Survey.
OMB Control Number: 2900–0864.
Type of Review: New collection.
Abstract: This collection effort is the
second phase of the PSTAP and
participants are respondents of the
original collection under the subject
control number approved on 4 Apr 19.
The PSTAP Longitudinal Survey will be
implemented by VA to assess how the
TAP training for Transitioning
Servicemembers (TSMs) prepares
Veterans for civilian life and its effects
on long-term Veteran outcomes. This
new information collection request
(ICR) will be conducted once per year
and is designed as a longitudinal survey
in conjunction with a cross sectional
survey previously submitted to OMB.
The survey population will include
servicemembers who participated in the
cross-sectional survey and voluntarily
agreed to participate in the longitudinal
survey. VA will use email, other
electronic communications and mail
methods to administer the survey,
limiting the burden on respondents. The
survey will be administered to gauge the
long-term effectiveness of the Transition
Assistance Program (TAP) by: (1)
Examining the relationship between
attendance in TAP courses and the use
of VA Benefits; (2) analyzing the effect
of participation in TAP courses on the
long-term outcomes of Veterans in the
broad life domains of employment,
education, health and social
relationships, financial, social
connectivity and overall satisfaction and
well-being, and; (3) identifying areas of
improvement for TAP and the broader
transition process to guide training and/
or operational activities aimed at
enhancing the quality of service
provided to transitioning service
members, Veterans, their families and
caregivers.
Affected Public: Individuals.
