The Board has ordered a remand for further development and readjudication due to discrepancies in the overpayment calculation, specifically regarding the reasons for withdrawal of courses during the summer 2017 term and the reduction of enrollment in the fall 2017 term. The Veteran's claims will be reassessed based on new information provided by Lone Star College.
The deciding factor: The Board found discrepancies between the overpayment amounts reported by different VA entities (DMC vs. RO) and ordered further investigation into the reasons for withdrawal of courses during the summer 2017 term and reduction in enrollment during the fall 2017 term to accurately determine any liability.

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.
