The Veteran's claim for a waiver of the recovery of an overpayment of $45,756.00 in VA nonservice-connected pension benefits is being remanded due to incomplete records and need for updated financial status information.
The deciding factor: Incomplete records and lack of recent financial status information are preventing a proper determination on the validity of the debt and whether the Veteran should be held at fault or not.

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.
