Remanded (sent back)
The Board has remanded the case due to incomplete notification of overpayment and the need for further review, including a paid and due audit of additional compensation.
The deciding factor: The validity of the debt must be fully reviewed by the RO before considering the veteran's entitlement to a waiver of recovery.

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.
