The Board has decided the increased rating claim for fallopian tube adhesion and has remanded both the new service connection claims and the initial rating claim due to lack of AOJ consideration of additional evidence.
The deciding factor: Additional evidence was received after the issuance of the supplemental statement of the case (SSOC) but before the transfer of the appeal to the Board. The Veteran did not provide a waiver for AOJ initial review, so the matter must be remanded for AOJ reconsideration.

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.
