The Appellant's request for a waiver of recovery of an overpayment of VA pension benefits in the amount of $38,142.00 was timely filed.
The deciding factor: The Board found that the first notification letter informing the estate (and therefore the Appellant) of her right to request a waiver within 180 days was from April 16, 2024, and she submitted a waiver request which was received on April 22, 2024.
