Common use of Applicants Clause in Contracts

Applicants. a. VA will attempt to verify independently the return information reported by the match by contacting the applicant and/or the source of the income. b. As part of the development of the claim and in order to compress the steps, VA will simultaneously provide notice of its attempted independent verification to the applicant and his or her representative. Although 38 U.S.C. § 5317(b) requires VA to take appropriate steps to independently verify income information obtained through its matching programs with the IRS and SSA, no statute or regulation prescribes a specific time period for VA’s independent verification. VA regulations, 38 C.F.R. § 3.159(b), provide applicants 30 days to respond to VA’s notice of evidence required to substantiate a claim. Therefore, the notice will state that VA provides 30 days for the applicant to submit evidence for purpose of showing that the amount identified in the match is incorrect. c. The independent verification notice advises that, unless the applicant submits evidence to the contrary, VA will conclude that the information discovered is correct and, if benefits are due, will calculate the initial award of benefits accordingly. d. An applicant may waive the 30-day notice period if he or she confirms the information found in the match.
