Remanded (sent back)

The Board has decided to remand the case due to an overpayment of compensation benefits in the amount of $7,212.74. The Veteran's current spouse was added to his award effective June 1, 2012, and there is a discrepancy in the calculation of the overpayment which needs to be reviewed.

The deciding factor: The overpayment calculation includes an adjustment for military retired pay that the Veteran may have received prior to December 1, 2018, but no evidence confirming this has been provided. The amount of the overpayment will need to be recalculated based on any new evidence.

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.
