Read other posts, know I need to file 21-22a. I am the daughter of a Veteran with dementia and have a POA (am applying for A&A). What do I check in 7B??? Am I an "agent" or "individual under 14.630". Do not want to make a mistake!
Thanks!!!

You should mark the section "individual under 14.630". Which states in part:
(a) Any person may be authorized to prepare, present, and prosecute one
claim. A proper power of attorney, and a statement signed by the person and
the claimant that no compensation will be charged or paid for the services,
shall be filed with the office where the claim is presented. A signed writing,
which may be in letter form, identifying the claimant and the type of benefit
or relief sought, specifically authorizing a named individual to act as
the claimant’s representative, and further authorizing direct access to
records pertinent to the claim, will be accepted as a power of attorney.
An 'agent' is someone who is recognized by the VA to present claims but they
are not a Veterans Service Officer or attorney. They are accredited by the
VA.
