Denied
The Board of Veterans' Appeals denied the appeal regarding the overpayment of VA compensation benefits in the amount of $1,089.00 due to the retroactive termination of payment of additional compensation for D., as a dependent spouse effective January 1, 2023.
The deciding factor: The Board found that sole administrative error was not present and that the debt at issue is valid given the Veteran's awareness or should have been aware of his continued receipt of benefits after confirming his spouse's death.
