The Board has scheduled a personal hearing for the veteran to determine if his request for waiver of recovery of an overpayment of VA Chapter 35 educational benefits was timely filed. The case will be returned to the RO after the hearing.
The deciding factor: Good cause has been demonstrated for rescheduling the hearing due to the veteran's medical disabilities, and a new date is set for the hearing.

What this means for you
A remand is not a loss. The Board sent the case back for more development — often a new exam or missing records — before making a final decision. Many remands later end in a grant, and the decision spells out exactly what the Board wanted to see.
