COUNSEL: NONE
HEARING DESIRED: NO
________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:
He be allowed to transfer his Post-9/11 GI Bill benefits to his
dependents.
________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:
He was not advised about transferring the remaining portion of
his Montgomery GI Bill under the Post-9/11 GI Bill to his
dependents. He requests the eligibility to transfer this
benefit to assist his dependents with their college tuition.
The applicant submits no supporting documentation.
The applicants complete submission is at Exhibit A.
________________________________________________________________
STATEMENT OF FACTS:
The applicant retired from the Air Force on 1 November 2007 in
the grade of master sergeant.
________________________________________________________________
AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
AFPC/DPSIT recommends denial since the applicant retired prior
to the effective date of the Post-9/11 GI Bill. There has been
no injustice to the extent the member did not receive adequate
counseling as required by law.
The complete DPSIT evaluation is at Exhibit B.
________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
A copy of the Air Force evaluation was forwarded to the
applicant on 26 November 2012, 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 not timely filed; however, it is in the
interest of justice to excuse the failure to timely file.
3. Insufficient relevant evidence has been presented to
demonstrate the existence of an error or injustice. We took
notice of the applicants complete submission in judging the
merits of this case; however, we find insufficient evidence of
an error or injustice to warrant corrective action. Most
notably, that the program was not in effect at the time of the
applicants retirement. Therefore, we find no basis to
recommend granting the relief sought in this application.
________________________________________________________________
THE BOARD DETERMINES THAT:
The applicant be notified that the evidence presented did not
demonstrate the existence of material error or injustice; that the
application was denied without a personal appearance; and that the
application will only be reconsidered upon the submission of newly
discovered relevant evidence not considered with this application
