Is there a limit to the number of times I can use my veterans' preference when applying for Federal jobs?

No. There is no limit on how many times you can apply and claim an entitlement to veterans' preference.  However, it is important to remember that veterans' preference does not apply when the agency is using merit promotion procedures to fill a position.
