The Veteran's claim for an extension of her delimiting date for Chapter 30 educational assistance benefits was denied as she did not file a timely request for such extension and the delimiting date is correctly calculated at April 10, 2007.
The deciding factor: The Veteran failed to file a timely request for an extension of her delimiting date within one year after it was assigned, and thus her claim cannot be granted as she did not meet the statutory requirements for such an extension.
