The Veteran's request for a waiver of recovery of overpayment of VA dependency benefits was timely filed.
The deciding factor: The Board found that the Veteran timely submitted her waiver request after she was made aware of her overpayment debt, as there is no evidence of proper notification from the DMC and it appears she communicated with VA promptly once informed of the second debt.
