The Veteran's appeal is being remanded for additional development and consideration of the new evidence submitted after the last Supplemental Statement of the Case (SSOC). The case will be reconsidered with the new evidence, and a Supplemental Statement of the Case (SSOC) will be issued.
The deciding factor: Additional development is needed due to the submission of new medical evidence by the Veteran's private physician and spouse's statement. This includes reviewing the new evidence and preparing a Supplemental Statement of the Case (SSOC).

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.
What you can do next
Use your own notice and decision stage. A remanded issue is not a final court-appealable denial. VA review guidance and CAVC filing instructions (U.S. federal; reviewed October 7, 2026).
