The Board has remanded the case due to unclear issues regarding drill pay adjustments of VA compensation benefits for fiscal years 2010, 2011, 2012, and 2013. The Veteran disputes the validity of these adjustments and requests a waiver.
The deciding factor: The Board is unsure about whether an overpayment exists or if any withholding occurred, and needs to prepare an accounting for the period between January 2010 and December 2016 (inclusive).

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.
