The Board found that the withholding of VA compensation benefits due to concurrent receipt of VA disability compensation and drill pay for 111 days during FY 2018 was proper, as there was no evidence showing the Veteran was not paid for those days.
The deciding factor: The Board determined that the creation of the overpayment debt was valid for FY 2018 due to the duty to assist error and the Veteran's timely response.
