The Board grants an increased apportionment of the Veteran's VA compensation benefits to the appellant, for the benefit of children BG and BG, in excess of the current amount of $200.00 per month from March 2022 to June 2022.
The deciding factor: The Veteran has not been reasonably discharging his responsibility for the support of his children while receiving additional monthly compensation as a dependent parent, and an apportionment in excess of 20% would result in undue hardship on the Veteran.
