The Board has granted the waiver of recovery for an overpayment in the calculated amount of $7,110 due to the appellant's receipt of Social Security benefits. The appeal regarding the overpayment in the calculated amount of $1,498 is remanded for further action.
The deciding factor: The delay in reporting Social Security benefits was not found to be with intent to seek an unfair advantage or with knowledge of likely consequences resulting in a loss to the government.
