The Veteran's overpayment debt of $2,593.12 for VA disability compensation benefits is denied as the creation was proper and not solely due to administrative error.
The deciding factor: The creation of the overpayment debt was not solely due to VA administrative error because the Veteran had knowledge or should have known that he received higher compensation benefits payments to which he was not entitled.
