The deciding factor: The Veteran demonstrated that due to circumstances beyond his control, he requested the waiver in excess of 180 days after the April 2015 notice.

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.
