The deciding factor: Further clarification regarding the amount of financial support the Veteran was providing to the Appellant on behalf of N.J. and determination of whether the Veteran's Social Security Administration disability benefits were being garnished on behalf of N.J. are required.

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.
