Denied
The Board denied the appeal regarding a debt in the amount of $8,099.25 resulting from an overpayment of housing allowance benefits under the Post-9/11 GI Bill.
The deciding factor: The Veteran had knowledge that she was not entitled to the benefit and thus, VA's error does not constitute sole administrative error.
