Granted
The Veteran's surviving spouse is granted eligibility for VA home loan guaranty benefits based on the exception to the 180-day service duration requirement due to a service-connected disability.
The deciding factor: The Veteran was discharged from active duty due to a service-connected right shoulder disability, which qualifies as an exception to the general service duration requirement for VA loan guaranty eligibility.
