Dismissed
The appeal of the proposed removal of the Veteran's son, J., from his award of VA disability compensation is dismissed as a matter of law. The Board also denied additional dependency benefits for the Veteran's daughter, B., based on school attendance in Cameroon.
The deciding factor: The February 8, 2024 letter proposing to remove the Veteran's dependent child, J., from his award of VA disability compensation and reduce his benefit is not a final agency action. The University of Buea Molyko in Cameroon is not an educational institution approved by VA.
