Remanded (sent back)

The Veteran's claim for a waiver of overpayment of VA compensation benefits is remanded due to the need for an audit to determine the validity of the debt in question.

The deciding factor: The Board finds that there was an error by the AOJ in satisfying their regulatory and statutory duties under 38 U.S.C. § 5302(b) and 38 C.F.R. § 1.965, which raises a reasonable possibility of aiding in substantiating the Veteran's claim.

What this means for you

A remand sends an issue back for more development, often a new examination or missing records. It does not award the benefit or decide the final outcome. The original decision explains the additional work ordered.
