Denied
The Board denied the Veteran's request for a waiver of recovery of an overpayment of VA compensation benefits in the amount of $18,370.84.
The deciding factor: The Board found that the Veteran was at fault in creating the debt and that recovery would not cause undue financial hardship or defeat the purpose of the benefit.
