The Veteran's appeal is remanded to address his claim for TDIU from May 7, 2008, and whether there was CUE in the rating decisions of March and July 2012. The AOJ must provide the Veteran with a VA Form 21-8940 and assist him in developing his occupational history.
The deciding factor: The Board finds that a remand is required to correct the duty to assist error which was not provided with the appropriate application form (VA Form 21-8940) for TDIU appeal.
