Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the issue of the propriety of the reduction in disability compensation benefits beginning in November 2017 due to over 60 days of incarceration for further development.
The deciding factor: Further development is necessary to confirm the Veteran's period of incarceration and determine if he is no longer incarcerated.

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.
