Remanded (sent back)

The Board has decided that the Veteran is not eligible for benefits under VA's Program of Comprehensive Assistance for Family Caregivers. The decision was based on a March 2021 review by the Centralized Eligibility and Appeals Team (CEAT) which found the Veteran did not meet eligibility requirements due to lack of care from a caregiver or need for supervision, protection, or instruction.

The deciding factor: The Board found that the March 2021 CEAT review was legally inadequate as it lacked sufficient reasoning and data to support its decision regarding the Veteran's eligibility for benefits under VA's Program of Comprehensive Assistance for Family Caregivers.

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.
