Dismissed
The Board dismissed the appeal as there is no longer a valid debt to waive, and thus no justiciable issue remains.
The deciding factor: The overpayment was waived in May 2019, making any further review moot.

What this means for you
A dismissal means the Board did not decide the issue on its merits — usually because it was withdrawn or had become moot. It says more about procedure than about whether a claim like this can win.
