The Board has remanded the case due to an apparent discrepancy between the amount of overpayment found and the amount paid by the Veteran, requiring further investigation into the validity of the overpayment and any additional waiver.
The deciding factor: There is a discrepancy in the amounts reported for the Veteran's overpayment and what she claims to have paid, necessitating verification and clarification.

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.
