Denied
The Veteran's request for a waiver of the overpayment was denied as it was not timely filed within 180 days after the notice of indebtedness.
The deciding factor: The Veteran did not provide evidence to rebut the presumption that he received proper notice, and his request was more than 180 days after the notice letter was sent.
