The Board remands the claim for a certificate of eligibility for VA home loan benefits due to missing service records and requires further development from the AOJ.
The deciding factor: The lack of clear information regarding the veteran's military service prevents determination of his eligibility for a COE, necessitating additional evidence collection.

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.
