educational benefits (TEB) to his daughter.
________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:
He never signed or declined paperwork for his Post-9/11 GI Bill
TEB before he retired.
The applicant does not provide any evidence in support of his
appeal.
The applicants complete submission is at Exhibit A.
________________________________________________________________
STATEMENT OF FACTS:
The applicant is a former member of the Regular Air Force who
retired on 1 July 2010.
For those members eligible for retirement after 1 August 2009,
and before 1 August 2010, one year additional service is
required in order to utilize TEB benefits.
The remaining relevant facts, extracted from the applicants
military service records, are contained in the evaluation by the
Air Force office of primary responsibility at Exhibit C.
________________________________________________________________
AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
AFPC/DPSIT recommends denial. DPSIT states the applicant did
not provide adequate justification or documentation. He
received a pre-separation briefing counseling on 21 September
2009, prior to retirement on 1 July 2010. He indicated on his
Department of Defense Form 2648, Pre-separation Counseling
Checklist for Active Component Service Members, that he did not
want counseling for educational benefits prior to his
retirement. There is also no record of him applying for the
benefit in the Transfer of Education Benefits or Right Now
Technology systems.
The complete DPSIT evaluation, with attachment, is at Exhibit C.
________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
A copy of the Air Force evaluation was forwarded to the
applicant on 24 February 2013, for review and comment within 30
days (Exhibit D). 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 error or injustice. We took notice
of the applicant's complete submission in judging the merits of
the case; 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 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 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.
