The Board has denied the appellant's request for waiver of an overpayment of VA death pension benefits in the amount of $4,569.00 due to her failure to report changes in income and assets as required by VA regulations.
The deciding factor: The Board found that the overpayment resulted from bad faith or lack of good faith on the part of the appellant in misreporting her income and assets.
