Denied
The Board denied the Veteran's claim for dependency benefits for his adult children as they were over 18 years of age and did not meet the eligibility criteria.
The deciding factor: The evidence does not show that the children qualified as dependent children for VA purposes, and no legal basis exists to grant the claim.
