Denied

The Board denied the Veteran's request for a waiver of recovery of an overpayment of VA compensation benefits, as the request was not timely received within 180 days after notification.

The deciding factor: The Veteran failed to file a timely request for a waiver of the overpayment, and there were no extenuating circumstances that justified the delay.
