dependent, and the period (beginning date or ending date) for which the 
transfer will be effective for each designated dependent. VA will use 
the information shown on DOD Form 2366-1 to determine whether the 
dependent qualifies to receive education benefits under the transfer of 
entitlement provision of law.
