The Board has remanded the case due to issues related to a claim of clear and unmistakable error (CUE) in a March 2010 rating decision that assigned an effective date of December 1, 2009 for a total disability rating based on individual unemployability (TDIU).
The deciding factor: The Board found no CUE in the March 2010 RO rating decision and remanded the issue to the RO for initial adjudication.

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.
