Granted
The appeal regarding the overpayment of Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) Dependency and Indemnity Compensation (DIC) benefits was granted due to an administrative error by the AOJ.
The deciding factor: The debt was created solely due to the AOJ's administrative error, as the appellant neither had knowledge of nor should have been aware of the erroneous award, and her actions did not contribute to the error.
