The Board denied the appellant's request for an increased apportionment amount of the Veteran's VA compensation benefits, finding that the evidence did not establish a need for an increase.
The deciding factor: The decision was based on the fact that the Veteran was making reasonable contributions to support the appellant and she had not demonstrated a need warranting an increased amount of apportionment.
