Remanded (sent back)
The Board has remanded the case due to incomplete records and unclear accounting of pension payments made between June 2012 and September 2013. The Veteran is seeking clarification on whether he was entitled to any payments in excess of those already granted, specifically regarding a $1052.00 per month withholding effective June 1, 2012.
The deciding factor: The record is incomplete and unclear as to the exact amounts paid and withheld during the period in question.

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.
