VA Form VA40-0895-3: Cemetery Grants Service Space Program Analysis, Buildings
VA Form VA40-0895-3 is the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs State or Tribal Government Cemetery Grants Service Space Program Analysis for buildings. Its PDF heading names state, tribal or eligible county government cemeteries. The form lists the rooms and areas of three cemetery buildings, each with a VA criteria figure in net or gross square feet, beside columns for the space proposed by the applicant and the total VA allowed.
The form says the information is necessary to provide documentation on the appropriate size of the building, based on VA guidance on the net and gross square footage standards for cemetery buildings. It is three pages: the space table on pages 1 and 2 with a computations box, then a certification with four signatures on page 3. It has no fields for a Veteran or family member, and VA's form page lists it as related to VACO. You can fill out the PDF free in your browser on this page and download the result without an account.
