Remanded (sent back)

The Board remands the issue of whether the withholding of VA disability compensation due to concurrent receipt of VA disability compensation and drill pay for 5 training days in Fiscal Year 2022 was proper, as it needs further evidence.

The deciding factor: The matter is remanded because pre-decisional errors were made by not verifying the number of training days performed during Fiscal Year 2022 with relevant systems.

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.
