The Board has ordered another remand to confirm the specific dates of active duty service, including any periods of ACDUTRA and INACDUTRA during the appellant's period of service in the U.S. Army Reserve.
The deciding factor: The need for verification of the specific dates of any periods of ACDUTRA and INACDUTRA during the appellant's period of service in the U.S. Army Reserve has been identified as a necessary step to complete the development requested in the September 2019 remand.

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.
