The veteran was granted reimbursement for the licensing and certification testing fee of $450.00 he incurred in July 2001 to take a Certified Financial Planner examination, as his eligibility for Chapter 30 educational assistance benefits extended through at least September 3, 2001.
The deciding factor: The veteran's eligibility for Chapter 30 educational assistance benefits was not terminated before the date of the test, allowing reimbursement of the testing fee.
