If you take less than 12 hours for a semester, then the housing allowance is prorated. If you take less than 6 hours, I don't believe a housing allowance is dispersed. If she is in 12+ hours and not receiving a full housing allowance, I would contact the VA and find out whats going on. Also, if she is enrolled in 12+ hours, but drops a class or 2 during the semester, that affects the housing allowance as well.
