Granted

The Veteran's request for a waiver of the recovery of an overpayment of VA compensation benefits in the amount of $5,328.00 is granted due to the recovery being against equity and good conscience.

The deciding factor: Recovery would defeat the purpose of the benefit intended and cause undue hardship given the Veteran's financial situation and health status.
