Denied

The Veteran's entitlement to additional Chapter 33 education benefits has been denied as he has already used the maximum allowed under VA regulations.

The deciding factor: VA regulations limit the total number of months of Chapter 33 benefits a veteran can receive, and the Veteran has already reached this limit with his existing entitlements.
