quality, utility, and clarity of the
information to be collected; and (4)
ways to minimize the burden of the
collection of information on

Title: COVID–19 Refund Modification.
OMB Control Number: 2900–0891.

Abstract: VA is temporarily

options available to servicers that do not
require VA’s prior approval to include
a new loan modification, the COVID–19
Refund Modification, to assist certain
COVID-impacted veterans as they exit a
COVID–19 forbearance. Under 38 U.S.C.
3720(a)(2), Congress has provided the
Secretary with discretion
‘‘[n]otwithstanding the provisions of
any other law’’ to set the terms and
conditions to which the Secretary will
consent to loan modifications.
Additionally, while VA has outlined in
regulation at 38 CFR 36.4315(a) the
terms of loan modifications that do not
require prior VA approval, VA may
waive a regulatory requirement if VA
finds the interest of the Government are
not adversely affected and such waiver
would relieve undue prejudice to a
debtor, holder, or other person without
impairing the vest rights of any person
affected. 38 CFR 36.4338(a).
Affected Public: Individuals or
Households.
Estimated Annual Burden: 25,800.
Estimated Average Burden per
Respondent: 90 minutes.
