The Board granted the Veteran's appeal and reinstated nonservice-connected pension benefits, effective January 1, 2022.
The deciding factor: The termination of the Veteran's pension benefits was based on an increase in net worth following the sale of his primary residence, but this increase did not exceed the maximum net worth limit for VA pension purposes during the period on appeal.
