Denied
The appeal for eligibility to enroll into the PCAFC was denied due to the death of the Veteran and the inability to complete the application requirements.
The deciding factor: Eligibility cannot be met as a matter of law because the joint application was not processed, and the applicants were not enrolled in PCAFC prior to the Veteran's death.
