Denied
The Board denied the Veteran's request for a waiver of overpayment of Post-9/11 GI Bill education benefits, finding that recovery would not be against equity and good conscience due to the Veteran's financial resources.
The deciding factor: Recovery of the overpayment would result in undue hardship for the Veteran as he has significant financial assets and income exceeding his necessary expenses.
