The claim for Legacy Service-Disabled Veterans Insurance (S-DVI or RH) was denied as the application was not timely received and the eligibility criteria were not met.
The deciding factor: The application for insurance was submitted more than two years after the August 2002 award of service connection for disabilities rated at ten percent disabling or more, following the Veteran's death in March 2005, and more than two years after she was appointed as his guardian by a worker's compensation judge.
