The veteran's Section 306 pension benefits were improperly terminated effective January 1, 1997 due to excessive income. The Board determined that the countable income for 1996 was below the applicable limit and thus the termination of benefits was improper.
The deciding factor: The veteran's countable income did not exceed the statutory limit for continued entitlement to Section 306 disability pension.
