The Board denied the appellant's request for waiver of loan guaranty indebtedness because it was not submitted within one year after VA provided proper notice by Certified Mail-Return Receipt requested.
The deciding factor: The appellant's request for waiver was received more than a year after VA provided proper notice of his indebtedness by Certified Mail-Return Receipt requested, which is the required time limit under VA regulations.
