Bolstad DIGEST: An employee whose annual leave account was erroneously overcredited due to the employing agency's error in establishing her service computation date requests waiver of the collection of the excess leave under 5 U.S.C. S 5584. Since the error is suscep- tible to correction without creating a nega- tive leave balance, there was no overpayment of pay or allowances which may be considered for waiver under the waiver statute. Mrs. Patricia A. Bolstad has appealed our Claims Group's disallowance of her request for waiver under 5 U.S.C. S 5584 of 180 hours of annual leave which were erroneously credited to her annual leave account. This error was the result of the agency's improperly placing her in a higher leave earnings category durinj the period from November 23, 1975, through June 30, 1979.'/ The Claims Group determined that the excess leave erroneously credited to the employee's leave account was not subject to consider- ation for waiver under 5 U.S.C. S 5584. Upon review of this matter, we sustain the determination of our Claims Group that the erroneous crediting of annual leave is not subject to waiver. Mrs. Bolstad is employed in the Hudson, New York District Office of the Social Security Administration, Department of Health and Human Services. Upon her initial employment with the District office on July 22, 1973, her service computation date was erroneously established as November 15, 1960, rather than June 21, 1964. The error was due to the agency's improperly including as creditable ser- vice, the employee's prior service with the Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation Service County Office 1/ Mrs. Bolstad's July 10, 1984 appeal of the Claims Group's action dated May 15, 1984, was forwarded to this Office by the Honorable Gerald B. Solomon, House of Representatives.
