38 CFR Part 21

RIN 2900-AI45


Survivors and Dependents Education: Extension of Eligibility 
Period

AGENCY: Department of Veterans Affairs.

ACTION: Final rule; technical amendment.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: In a document published in the Federal Register on October 3, 
1997 (62 FR 51783), VA amended the ``Survivors' and Dependents' 
Educational Assistance Under 38 U.S.C. Chapter 35'' regulations. The 
final rule, among other things, transferred the subject matter of 
paragraph (e) of Sec. 21.3046 to a new Sec. 21.3047. Inadvertently, two 
cross-references to said paragraph (e) were not amended to reflect the 
change. Accordingly, this document corrects this error by changing the 
cross-references to refer to the new Sec. 21.3047.

EFFECTIVE DATE: November 4, 1997.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: June C. Schaeffer, Assistant Director 
for Policy and Program Administration, Education Service, Veterans 
Benefits Administration, 202-273-7187.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance 
number for the program affected by this final rule is 64.117.
