This bill mandates the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) to seek an agreement with a federally funded research and development center (FFRDC) within 30 days of enactment. The FFRDC will conduct an independent assessment of forms the VA sends to claimants for benefits, consulting with various stakeholders including veterans service organizations and advocates. The assessment's primary goal is to provide recommendations to the Secretary of Veterans Affairs on how to make these forms clearer and better organized for claimants. Within 90 days of receiving the assessment, the Secretary must submit it to Congress and begin implementing the compliant recommendations, with completion required within two years. Additionally, the bill extends certain limits on pension payments by changing a date from November 30, 2031, to December 31, 2031.
