Denied
The Veteran's appeal for additional VA educational assistance benefits under Chapter 33 was denied because she had already used the maximum allowable 48 months of combined education benefits from multiple programs.
The deciding factor: The Veteran has received the maximum 48 months of combined education benefits and is not entitled to receive more under Chapter 33, as per applicable VA law and regulations.
