Granted
The Board granted a waiver of recovery of the overpayment of VA compensation benefits due to undue hardship and in order to avoid defeating the purpose of the benefits.
The deciding factor: The Veteran's inability to provide basic necessities for himself and his family, combined with the debt not being due to fraud or misrepresentation, led to the decision that recovery would be against equity and good conscience.
