The Board remands the issue of entitlement to a TDIU prior to May 13, 2019, for further development and clarification of the Veteran's employment history.
The deciding factor: The Board finds that it cannot make a fully informed decision regarding the Veteran's claim due to unclear employment history and the need for a medical opinion addressing the combined effects of his service-connected disabilities on his ability to acquire and maintain substantially gainful employment.

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.
