Veterans can use those grants to adapt their current homes (or acquire new homes with adaptations) to increase their mobility and enhance their ability to live independently. Under current law, VA is not authorized to recover overpayments made for those grants; H.R. 6018 would give the department the discretion to do so. According to VA, overpayments occur infrequently and in small amounts; thus, CBO estimates that allowing the department to recover them would decrease direct spending (the result of increased receipts) by an insignificant amount over the 2020-2030 period. The CBO staff contact for this estimate is Paul B.A. Holland. The estimate was reviewed by Leo Lex, Deputy Director of Budget Analysis.
