The veteran's entitlement to VA educational assistance benefits under the Chapter 30 program has been limited to 13 months and 8 days due to his prior use of Chapter 34 benefits. The Board found that this limitation was proper based on the law.
The deciding factor: The veteran had used 34 months and 22 days of entitlement under the Chapter 34 program before applying for Chapter 30, leaving him with only 13 months and 8 days of remaining entitlement under the Chapter 30 program.
