The Board has remanded the case due to failure to comply with prior remand orders regarding employment information and timeline. The Veteran needs to provide completed VA Form 21-4192 for each employer, including his family cleaning business, and clarify his employment history.
The deciding factor: The RO failed to request complete employment/unemployment information as required by the Board's previous remand orders.

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.
