Abstract
This document amends the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) adjudication regulation that explains how a claimant can use a mark or a thumbprint in place of a signature. This amendment is necessary to present the existing regulation in plain language and to remove an obsolete manual provision from VA's Adjudication Procedural Manual, M21-1. This document also adds a new subpart D to part 3 along with a section setting forth the scope of applicability of subpart D.
