The Board denied the Appellant's claim for additional payment of benefits under the Montgomery GI Bill (MGIB) for a period of enrollment between July 7, 2008 and July 11, 2008. The Appellant was only entitled to reimbursement based on the full-time monthly rate prorated for the days he was enrolled.
The deciding factor: The Board determined that the Appellant was only entitled to a portion of the full-time monthly rate due to his enrollment period being less than one month, and thus did not warrant additional payment under Chapter 30 of Title 38 United States Code (MGIB).

What this means for you
A final Board denial may be appealed to the U.S. Court of Appeals for Veterans Claims, generally within 120 days of the Board mailing date. A Supplemental Claim with new and relevant evidence is a separate option. Another Higher-Level Review of the Board decision is not available. Check your own notice: this historical decision does not set your deadline.
