The Board is remanding the case for additional development, including obtaining information about the veteran's discharge and her service records.
The deciding factor: Reasons for remand include incomplete evidence and need for clarification of the veteran's discharge category based on a physical condition not characterized as disability due to willful misconduct but interfering with duty performance.

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.
