Granted
The Board granted the waiver of recovery of an overpayment of Chapter 33 educational assistance benefits due to financial hardship and the fact that the Veteran nearly completed her course.
The deciding factor: Recovery would be against equity and good conscience as there is no indication of fraud, misrepresentation, or bad faith on the part of the Veteran, and she will endure financial hardship if forced to repay the debt.
