    Title: Veterans Mortgage Life Insurance--Change of Address 
Statement, VA Form 29-0563.
    OMB Control Number: 2900-0503.
    Type of Review: Extension without change of a currently approved 
collection.
    Abstract: The data collected on VA Form 29-0563 will be used to 
inquire about a veteran's continued ownership of property issued under 
Veterans Mortgage Life Insurance when an address change for the veteran 
is received. VA uses the data collected to determine whether continued 
Veterans Mortgage Life Insurance coverage is applicable since the law 
granting this insurance provides that coverage terminates if the 
veteran no longer owns the property.
    Affected Public: Individuals or households.
    Estimated Annual Burden: 20 hours.
    Estimated Average Burden per Respondent: 5 minutes.
    Frequency of Response: On occasion.
    Estimated Number of Respondents: 240.

    Dated: January 10, 2014.

    By direction of the Secretary.
Crystal Rennie,
VA Clearance Officer, Department of Veterans Affairs.
