The Board found that the veteran's request for waiver of recovery of an overpayment of non-service-connected disability benefits, in the calculated amount of $841.00, was timely received and granted.
The deciding factor: The decision is based on the finding that the veteran's October 19, 1992 letter requesting a personal hearing was also a request for a waiver of indebtedness, which was within the 180-day period following the date of the notice of indebtedness.
