The appeal contesting the September 2022 award of an apportionment from the Veteran's VA disability compensation benefits on behalf of his child, H.S., is denied.
The deciding factor: The evidence does not show that the Veteran has not reasonably discharged his responsibility for the child's support or that the apportionment would result in undue financial hardship for him.
