The Board has ordered a remand due to the VA Agency of Original Jurisdiction (AOJ) failing to accurately account for medical insurance premiums and income from the Appellant's dependent. The AOJ needs to complete an accounting on these issues.
The deciding factor: The AOJ did not properly deduct the Appellant's medical insurance premium payments and failed to consider her dependent's income, leading to incorrect calculations of countable income.

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.
