removed.

APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT: 

 

Her ADSC is for the Transfer of Education Benefits (TEB) to her 
dependents. Her dependents have not utilized any of the benefit 
and she has revoked the transfer effective 24 August 2011. 

 

In support of her appeal, the applicant provides a copy of a 
Transfer of Education Benefits approval letter dated 24 August 
2011. 

 

The applicant’s complete submission, with attachment, is at 
Exhibit A.

master sergeant. 

 

The remaining relevant facts pertaining to this application, 
extracted from the applicant’s military records, are contained in 
the letter prepared by the appropriate office of the Air Force 
(Exhibit B). Accordingly, there is no need to recite these facts 
in this Record of Proceedings. 

 

_________________________________________________________________ 

 

AIR FORCE EVALUATION: 

 

AFPC/DPSIT recommends denial. DPSIT states the applicant signed 
a Statement of Understanding (SOU) with the understanding that 
just because a member can revoke benefits; it does not 
automatically cancel the associated ADSC - even if benefits have 
not been used. 

 

 


 

The DPSIT complete evaluation, with attachment, is at Exhibit B. 

 

_________________________________________________________________ 

 

APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION: 

 

On 16 September 2011, a copy of the Air Force evaluation was 
forwarded to the applicant for review and comment within 30 days 
(Exhibit C). As of this date, this office has received no 
response. 

 

_________________________________________________________________ 

 

THE BOARD CONCLUDES THAT: 

 

1. The applicant has exhausted all remedies provided by existing 
law or regulations. 

 

2. The application was timely filed. 

 

3. Insufficient relevant evidence has been presented to 
demonstrate the existence of an error or injustice. The 
applicant’s contentions are duly noted; however, we agree with 
the opinion and recommendation of the Air Force office of primary 
responsibility and adopt its rationale as the basis for our 
conclusion that the applicant has not been the victim of an error 
or injustice. Therefore, in the absence of evidence to the 
contrary, we find no basis to recommend granting the relief 
sought. 

 

_________________________________________________________________ 

 

THE BOARD DETERMINES THAT: 

 

The applicant be notified the evidence presented did not 
demonstrate the existence of an error or an injustice; the 
application was denied without a personal appearance; and the 
application will only be reconsidered upon the submission of 
newly discovered relevant evidence not considered with this 
application.
