VA Form 21-4140, VA Employment Questionnaire , is a form used by the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) for gathering the information necessary to determine a Veteran's continued entitlement to Individual Unemployability (IU) benefits.
The VA released the latest edition of the form on October 1, 2017 . An up-to-date VA Form 21-4140 fillable version is available for download and digital filing below.
IU benefits - or Total Disability Based on Individual Unemployability (TDIU) benefits - are payments provided to Veterans who are unable to secure a job due to a service-connected disability. A TDIU rating equates to a 100% disability rating. If a Veteran is granted a TDIU rating their VA service-connected disability rating is automatically raised to 100%.
The VA 21-4140 must be completed annually by all IU recipients under the age of 60. The VA requires Veterans who receive IU benefits to regularly certify that they are still unemployed or marginally employed. Step-by-step VA Form 21-4140 instructions can be found below.
