Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the matter to make a formal finding regarding the validity of the overpayment and to consider the Appellant's challenge to the debt.
The deciding factor: The Appellant has challenged the validity of the debt, arguing that she is still married through common law despite her formal divorce, which affects the determination of whether an overpayment was validly created.
