The Board of Veterans' Appeals (BVA) has determined that the apportionment of $200 per month from the Veteran's VA compensation benefits on behalf of his minor son, C.C., was proper. The decision is based on the fact that the ex-wife provided evidence showing financial need and expenses exceeding income.
The deciding factor: The Veteran did not provide information demonstrating he had fulfilled his obligation to support his minor children or that he experienced undue hardship as a result of the monthly apportionment.
