The Board has decided to remand the case due to conflicting information regarding the Veteran's debt for FYs 2009, 2010, 2012, and 2013. The VA needs to complete an accounting of the withholdings and repayments for these years and determine if a waiver was granted.
The deciding factor: The Board found conflicting information regarding the Veteran's debt for FYs 2009, 2010, 2012, and 2013 and thus requires further clarification and accounting of the withholdings and repayments.

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.
