The Board has granted a $323.00 per month special apportionment of the Veteran's VA disability compensation for the appellant/estranged spouse, finding that hardship was established and that this amount does not result in undue hardship on the Veteran.
The deciding factor: Hardship was established by the appellant's financial needs exceeding her income, while the Veteran’s income exceeded his expenses. The Board found a proper apportionment of $323.00 per month to be reasonable without causing undue hardship to the Veteran.
