The Board has remanded the Veteran's claims for service connection due to insufficient evidence regarding whether her left knee condition and migraines were aggravated by active duty service.
The deciding factor: The Board found that there was not clear and unmistakable evidence showing that the Veteran's pre-existing conditions worsened during active duty, necessitating further examination and opinion on this issue.

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.
