Remanded (sent back)

The Board remands the matter of entitlement to waiver of a $61,141.29 overpayment of VA compensation benefits due to the need for the Agency of Original Jurisdiction (AOJ) to review the validity of the debt.

The deciding factor: Remand is necessary because the AOJ must first fully review the debt's validity before the Board can adjudicate the waiver 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.
