Remanded (sent back)
The Board has decided that there is a discrepancy in the number of drill days the Veteran had in FY 2015 and she needs to provide documentation from her unit commander or other designee to support this claim. The AOJ should also contact DFAS for verification.
The deciding factor: The Veteran did not submit required documentation supporting her claim regarding the number of drill days received in FY 2015.

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.
