Highlights

A retired Navy officer appealed his denied claim for a waiver of indebtedness for a dual compensation overpayment, contending that he was unaware that the dual compensation requirement applied to his temporary position. GAO held that the claimant was at fault, since he did not promptly inform the Navy of his temporary employment. Accordingly, the appeal was denied.
