Y2Julio Posted September 23, 2009 Share #483 Posted September 23, 2009 From DCAS. A candidate can receive Legacy Credit for no more than one parent or one sibling. A candidate can, however, receiveLegacy Credit for both a parent and a sibling, in which case, the candidate may be entitled to 20 points. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
