Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the matters of entitlement to an increased rating for atrial fibrillation and a TDIU due to additional evidence submitted by the Veteran that was not considered in previous SSOCs.
The deciding factor: Remand is required as the RO failed to provide the Veteran with a Supplemental Statement of the Case (SSOC) after new evidence was added to the claims file, which is necessary for proper adjudication of the claims.
