Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the matter for additional development, including obtaining updated employment information and a new VA examination to assess the Veteran's level of occupational impairment due to service-connected PTSD.
The deciding factor: The September 2024 VA examination report is found to be incomplete as it conflicts with the Veteran's reported work history and does not provide sufficient context for assessing occupational impairment.
