Denied
The Board denied the Veteran's appeal for earlier effective date of transferred education benefits under the Post-9/11 GI Bill, as the law dictates that the earliest beginning date is July 29, 2024.
The deciding factor: The decision was based on the requirement that the Veteran complete 10 years of service before his daughter could use the transferred educational assistance benefits.
