Partly granted
The Board granted a waiver of recovery for an overpayment of $9,681.62 but denied the same for an overpayment of $2,428.00.
The deciding factor: Equity and good conscience require waiving recovery of the larger portion of the debt due to VA's fault in not properly updating the Veteran's status, while recouping a smaller portion as it was the Veteran's fault for not timely informing VA of her divorce.
