Partly granted
The Veteran's challenges to the creation of an overpayment debt were denied, but the amount of the debt was reduced. The claim for a waiver of the recoupment of the overpayment debt is remanded.
The deciding factor: The Board determined that the Veteran knew or should have known about the reduction in benefits post-divorce, thus the debt was properly created; however, the period of the overpayment was improperly delineated.
