Remanded (sent back)
The Board has decided to remand the case due to incomplete file and the need for additional documentation from the appellant. The appellant needs to provide a request for waiver of overpayment that she claims she filed in January 2012, as well as any related documents.
The deciding factor: The file is incomplete and requires additional information from the appellant regarding her claim for waiver of overpayment.

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.
