Granted

The Veteran's challenges to the validity of the amount of his combined overpayment are granted, reducing the original overpayment calculated by VA from $15,847.59 to $10,280.41.

The deciding factor: The Board corrected an initial accounting error and applied a de facto past-due apportionment as an offset against the debt.
