The Board has determined that a partial waiver of recovery of an overpayment of compensation benefits on behalf of a dependent spouse in the amount of $3,255 is warranted.
The deciding factor: Recovery of the portion of the overpayment attributable to the payments for a dependent which were issued from August 1992 through January 1993 would not be against equity and good conscience as the veteran had no dependents during that period. Such a decision allowing a partial waiver would not be unduly favorable or adverse to either side.
