1,402 vetted Board decisions in 2019.

New decisions are added every week, and older years are actively being backfilled — a year that looks thin or missing here (especially 2011–2017) is a gap in our library, not in the Board’s decisions.

Remanded (sent back)January 2019
The Board has remanded the appellant's claims due to incomplete verification of his periods of active duty for training (ACDUTRA) and inactive duty training (INACDUTRA). The case is returned to the AOJ for further consideration, including obtaining a new VA examination following completion of the verification process.
DeniedJanuary 2019
The Veteran's pneumonia with COPD has been rated at 30 percent since May 4, 2010. The VA determined that the evidence does not support an increase to a higher rating.
