The Board has determined that the overpayment of disability compensation benefits in the amount of $786.00 was created and is valid, but the veteran's request for a waiver of recovery of this overpayment is being referred to the Committee on Waivers and Compromises.
The deciding factor: The validity of the overpayment creation has been determined by the RO/AMC, and now the issue of whether the veteran can obtain a waiver of the recovery of the overpayment is pending with the Committee on Waivers and Compromises.

What this means for you
A remand sends an issue back for more development, often a new examination or missing records. It does not award the benefit or decide the final outcome. The original decision explains the additional work ordered.
