The Veteran's appeal for retroactive CRDP compensation for the period from June 1, 2009 to August 31, 2010 is dismissed. The issue of an effective date prior to July 1, 2015 for retroactive CRDP compensation totalling $19,529.27 is remanded.
The deciding factor: The Veteran has already received the retroactive CRDP he sought for the period from June 1, 2009 to August 31, 2010 and thus his appeal is moot.

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.
