Granted
The Veteran's former spouse and mother of their minor child has been granted a monthly special apportionment of the Veteran’s VA compensation benefits on behalf of the minor child since December 5, 2018 in the amount of $650.00 due to financial hardship.
The deciding factor: The appellant showed a financial hardship and an apportionment of the Veteran's VA compensation benefits would not cause him undue hardship.
