Kernrechtsfrage
Whether the repayment waiver for overpaid supplementary benefits should be granted despite the claimant's failure to report a significant increase in assets.
Extrahierter Entscheid
The claimant could not invoke good faith because he should have recognized that the asset change had to be reported directly to the EL authority.
Extrahierte Begründung
The EL decision expressly warned of the duty to report any relevant change and its consequences. Reporting the increase only to the tax authorities did not relieve the claimant of his separate duty under EL law. Given the clear information in the prior decision and the bank statements showing annual gains, gross negligence was established.
