The Board remands the matter to determine at what rate the appellant received Chapter 33 education benefits from October 24, 2016 to October 30, 2017 and whether the debt is valid.
The deciding factor: The evidence does not clearly indicate the benefit level the appellant was paid during the relevant period, making it impossible to determine if the overpayment is valid.

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.
