Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the matter for verification of the Veteran's dates of incarceration and a detailed audit to determine the validity of the overpayment and to adjudicate the waiver request.
The deciding factor: The creation of the overpayment is dependent on verified dates of incarceration, which are not clear from the current record.

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.
