The Board denied the claims for a remedy based on an alleged premature recoupment of an overpayment debt, a lower rate of recoupment, and a waiver of the recoupment of the overpayment debt in the amount of $37,339.72.
The deciding factor: The recoupments were not prematurely commenced or against the principles of equity and good conscience, and the Veteran's waiver claim was denied due to lack of evidence supporting financial hardship and nullification of compensation goals.
