Denied
The Board denied the Veteran's request for an extension of his delimiting date for educational assistance benefits under Chapter 33, as there was no evidence that a physical or mental disability prevented him from pursuing his education prior to the March 20, 2020, delimiting date.
The deciding factor: The Board found that the Veteran did not meet any of the legal bases for extending his delimiting date under applicable law.
