The Board remands the claim for further development to determine if the Veteran had at least 90 days of qualifying active duty service after September 10, 2001.
The deciding factor: Due to conflicting information regarding the Veteran's service, it is unclear whether he had sufficient qualifying active duty service to be eligible for Chapter 33 benefits.

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.
