The Board has determined that the overpayment of VA compensation benefits was not properly created due to administrative error on the part of VA, and thus grants a waiver of recovery for $8,715.89.
The deciding factor: VA's repeated failure to act constituted sole administrative error in calculating the alleged overpayment, invalidating the debt and allowing for its waiver.
