Denied
The Board denied the Veteran's request for a waiver of recovery of an overpayment of VA compensation benefits in the amount of $1,397.42.
The deciding factor: Recovery was not against equity and good conscience given that the Veteran promptly confirmed his spouse's death and the debt resulted from VA's failure to terminate the dependency allowance in a timely manner within one year.
