Remanded (sent back)
The Veteran's claims for a higher rating for PTSD and total disability based on individual unemployability (TDIU) have been sent back for more evidence. The VA needs to get Social Security records and the Veteran should fill out a form.
The deciding factor: The Board decided to remand because relevant SSA records were not obtained.
