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.

- Denied
The Veteran's unemployment prior to July 5, 2011, was due to a lawsuit and not related to his service-connected disabilities. Therefore, the claim for TDIU prior to that date is denied.
- Remanded (sent back)
The Board has remanded the case due to unclear employment history and occupational impairment caused by service-connected disabilities prior to December 27, 2016. Additional development is needed to clarify these issues.
- Remanded (sent back)
The Board has remanded the case due to insufficient evidence regarding the Veteran's employment history before June 28, 2019. The AOJ is required to obtain federal records from the Social Security Administration and request the Veteran's employment information.
- Remanded (sent back)
The Board has remanded the case for further consideration due to new evidence not previously reviewed by the AOJ.
