AN ACT to amend the civil service law, in relation to the application of
  veteran's credits to civil service examinations

  THE  PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, REPRESENTED IN SENATE AND ASSEM-
BLY, DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS:

  Section 1.  Subdivision 3 of section 85 of the civil service  law,  as
added by chapter 790 of the laws of 1958, is amended to read as follows:
  3. Application for additional credit; proof of eligibility; establish-
ment of eligible list. Any candidate, believing himself OR HERSELF enti-
tled  to  additional  credit  in  a  competitive examination as provided
[herein] IN THIS SECTION, may make application for such additional cred-
it at any time between the date of his OR HER application  for  examina-
tion  and  the date of the establishment of the resulting eligible list.
Such candidates shall be allowed a period of not less  than  two  months
from the date of the filing of his OR HER application for examination in
which to establish by appropriate documentary proof his OR HER eligibil-
ity  to  receive additional credit under this section. At any time after
two months have elapsed since the final date for filing applications for
a competitive examination for original  appointment  or  promotion,  the
eligible  list  resulting  from  such  examination  may  be established,
notwithstanding the fact that a veteran  or  disabled  veteran  who  has
applied  for additional credit has failed to establish his OR HER eligi-
bility to receive such additional  credit.  A  candidate  who  fails  to
establish,  by  appropriate documentary proof, his OR HER eligibility to
receive additional credit by the time an eligible  list  is  established
shall not thereafter be granted additional credit on such eligible list.
NOTWITHSTANDING  THE  FOREGOING,  BELATED  APPLICATION FOR AN ADDITIONAL
CREDIT AS A VETERAN OR DISABLED VETERAN MAY BE MADE BY AN APPLICANT  WHO
HAS  ALREADY  BEEN  PLACED  ON  AN  ELIGIBLE LIST BUT SUBSEQUENT TO SUCH

 EXPLANATION--Matter in ITALICS (underscored) is new; matter in brackets
                      [ ] is old law to be omitted.
                                                           LBD03503-01-9
