HB 62 Claims; Dungan, Christopher.

Introduced by: Michele B. McQuigg | all patrons    ...    notes | add to my profiles

SUMMARY AS INTRODUCED:

Claims; Christopher Dugan. Provides relief for Christopher Dugan, whose father is a United States Army veteran. Dugan was denied eligibility under the Virginia War Orphans Education Program because at the time of his application he was twenty-seven years old and over the twenty-five-year old age limit. The Veterans' Administration provided his father with a 100 percent disability rating effective as of September 15, 1994, but did not inform him of the rating until November 24, 1997. The over-three-year period that elapsed left Dugan beyond the eligible age limit. The bill provides for the Director of the Department of Veterans' Affairs to review Dugan’s eligibility application for educational assistance notwithstanding the age and to provide such assistance as he would be entitled under the Virginia War Orphans Education Program.
