Remanded (sent back)
The Board denied the Veteran's eligibility for benefits under the Program of Comprehensive Assistance for Family Caregivers (PCAFC) originating from a March 2020 joint application, as his service was prior to the implementation of the MISSION Act's eligibility expansion. The issue regarding an October 2020 joint application is remanded.
The deciding factor: The Veteran does not meet the criteria for eligibility for PCAFC benefits due to his service period being before the effective date of expanded eligibility criteria found in the VA MISSION Act of 2018.
