The Board remands the matter for a new VA Form 21-8940 and additional employment information to properly adjudicate the Veteran's claim for TDIU.
The deciding factor: The Board finds that a new VA Form 21-8940 is necessary due to conflicting employment history, and the Veteran must provide this information or risk having his appeal adjudicated without it.

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.
