Denied
The Board denied the Veteran's appeal for VA educational assistance benefits for his son under the Transfer of Entitlement provisions of Chapter 33, as there was no showing that the service department approved a request by the Veteran to transfer such benefits.
The deciding factor: The VADIR database did not show any approval from the service department for transferring Post-9/11 GI Bill benefits to the Veteran's son.
