The Board has remanded the claim for waiver of overpayment due to a lack of an updated Financial Status Report (FSR). The Veteran needs to provide this report.
The deciding factor: The appeal was returned without an updated FSR, and the Veteran's request for waiver must be reconsidered with the new information provided in the FSR.

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.
