The Veteran's waiver request for the overpayment of $3,076.00 in VA dependency benefits was granted due to undue hardship and lack of fraud or bad faith on his part.
The deciding factor: The Board found that the creation of the overpayment did not involve fraud, misrepresentation, or bad faith on the Veteran's part, and that repayment would result in undue hardship for the Veteran given his age and lack of support.
