The deciding factor: Clarification is needed regarding the type of training the Veteran participated in from May 8, 2013 to April 1, 2014 to properly adjudicate his claim.

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.
