Granted
The termination of pension benefits effective March 21, 2011, was found to be improper due to a procedural error in the notification process.
The deciding factor: The notice requirements of 38 C.F.R. § 3.103 were not met as VA's January 2023 action did not provide the required 60-day period for response after the initial November 2022 proposal letter.
