VA Form 26-6681: Application for Fee or Roster Personnel Designation
VA Form 26-6681 is the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs Application for Fee or Roster Personnel Designation. The applicant marks the designation applied for, real estate appraiser or compliance inspector, and gives personal, education, license, practice and employment details with references. VA's page lists it under Employment or jobs at VA, while the form says approval does not make the applicant an agent or employee of VA and that the applicant's status in fee work is that of an independent contractor.
The form is two pages. The applicant signs the certification, and a reviewing official completes the last part with a recommendation of designation or disapproval and the appraisal areas.
The form carries OMB Control No. 2900-0113. You can fill out the PDF free in your browser on this page and download the result without an account.
