The Board has remanded the matter due to a need for further development regarding the validity of the debt created based on pension award adjustments from August 2014. The Veteran and his son provided additional evidence, but the PMC needs to consider this information before making a determination.
The deciding factor: The PMC must review the additional evidence submitted by the Veteran and his son to determine if it affects the validity of the overpayment 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.
