The Board has remanded the case for further action, including verification of military service and a determination on the veteran's eligibility for educational benefits under Chapter 1606 and Chapter 32. The RO must ensure that all relevant evidence is considered and that the veteran is provided with proper notice.
The deciding factor: The Board found that the previous remand directives were not followed, necessitating further action to verify service records and determine eligibility for educational benefits under Chapters 1606 and 32 of Title 10 and Title 38, respectively.

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.
