The Veteran's appeal is remanded for a detailed accounting of all adjustments to his military retirement pay and VA compensation benefits from FY 2011. The Veteran needs to provide the VA with a copy of the check he wrote in 2013 for overpayment, and both DFAS and DMC need to conduct an accounting.
The deciding factor: The decision is remanded due to insufficient evidence regarding the amount of military benefits paid or withheld and adjustments made to VA compensation benefits from FY 2011 to present.

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.
What you can do next
Use your own notice and decision stage. A remanded issue is not a final court-appealable denial. VA review guidance and CAVC filing instructions (U.S. federal; reviewed October 7, 2026).
