Collection Improvement Act of 1996" which was signed into law on April 26, 1996, required all Federal payments to be made by Electronic Fund Transfer (EFT or Direct Deposit) beginning January
1, 1999. Waivers will be available where the conversion from paper checks imposes a hardship. Write to the address shown below for more information concerning a waiver. To have your VA
compensation, pension, education, or spina bifida payment deposited into your account right away with Direct Deposit just call VA's toll-free number above or complete this form and mail to:
