Remanded (sent back)

The deciding factor: The debt amounts are unclear and disputed, requiring further development before a waiver can be properly adjudicated.

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.
