The Board remands the issue of entitlement to a total disability rating based on individual unemployability (TDIU) prior to April 24, 2023, for further development and referral to the Director of the Compensation Service.
The deciding factor: The evidence suggests the Veteran may not have been able to obtain or retain substantially gainful employment due to his service-connected conditions prior to April 24, 2023, but a remand is required to refer extraschedular TDIU to the Director of the Compensation Service for consideration in the first instance.
