This section reduces a veteran’s annual clothing allowance for days when the veteran is imprisoned and receives clothing from the institution for free.

If a veteran is imprisoned for more than 60 days in a Federal, State, local, or other penal institution or correctional facility and the institution supplies clothing without charge, the veteran’s annual clothing allowance under section 1162 must be reduced. For each day of that imprisonment during the 12 months before the allowance is due, the reduction is 1/365 of the allowance that would otherwise be paid. The Secretary must carry out this section through regulations.
