The Veteran's claim for the validity of a debt due to reduction in VA disability compensation for concurrent receipt of military service drill pay for FYs 2006 through 2010 and 2013 is remanded due to internal inconsistencies in audit results.
The deciding factor: There are significant internal inconsistencies in the audit results, leading to a need for further investigation into VA benefit transactions and disbursements since October 2002.

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.
