The Veteran's claim for an extension of her delimiting date for educational assistance benefits under Chapter 30, Title 38, United States Code (Montgomery GI Bill) is denied as there are no legal grounds to grant the requested benefit.
The deciding factor: The law does not permit an extended delimiting date in this case due to the Veteran's arguments of equity and fairness. The benefits provided under Chapter 30 program do not include provisions for such extensions, and the Veteran did not meet all requirements of the applicable laws.
