The Board has denied challenges to the creation of an overpayment arising from the Veteran's divorce, but granted challenges to the validity of the period underlying the overpayment. The period is now limited to June 1, 2019, to May 31, 2020. The case is remanded for further action including a paid and due audit and calculation of the proper amount of the Veteran's overpayment.
The deciding factor: The Board found that while the creation of the overpayment was not properly created by VA, the validity of the period underlying the overpayment was valid as per new regulations. The case is remanded for further action to determine the correct amount of the overpayment and any recoupment due to the Veteran.

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.
