The deciding factor: The record lacks adequate notice of the basis for the denial, which is necessary for the claimant to make an informed decision or know what evidence they need to submit in order to substantiate their appeal.

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.
