38 U.S.C. 2102A(b)(2), 38 U.S.C.

Section 2102(e)(2) authorizes the
Secretary to increase the aggregate
amounts of SAH assistance annually
based on a residential home cost-ofconstruction index. Per 38 CFR
36.4411(a), the Secretary uses the
Turner Building Cost Index for this
purpose.
In the most recent quarter for which
the Turner Building Cost Index is
available, 2nd Quarter 2020, the index
showed an increase of 2.44 percent over
the index value listed for 2nd Quarter
2019. Turner Construction Company—
Cost Index, https://
www.turnerconstruction.com/cost-index
(last visited August 7, 2020). Pursuant to
38 CFR 36.4411(a), therefore, the
aggregate amounts of assistance for SAH
grants made pursuant to 38 U.S.C.
2101(a) and 2101(b) will increase by
2.44 percent for FY 2021.

require the Secretary to apply the same
percentage calculated pursuant to
section 2102(e) to grants authorized
pursuant to sections 2102A and 2102B.
As such, the maximum amount of
assistance available under these grants
will also increase by 2.44 percent for FY
2021.
The increases are effective as of
October 1, 2020. 38 U.S.C. 2102(e),
2102A(b)(2), and 38 U.S.C. 2102B(b)(2).
