The Board granted a waiver of recovery for the remaining overpayment of $8,750 due to financial hardship and found that withholding this amount would not result in undue hardship or defeat the purpose of the benefit.
The deciding factor: The Veteran's failure to report her income led to an overpayment which was waived except for the remaining $8,750. The Board found that recovery of this amount would cause undue financial hardship and thus granted a waiver.
