The Board remands the Veteran's claim for a TDIU rating due to an inadequate VA examination and the need for further development of evidence.
The deciding factor: The previous VA examinations were found to be inadequate, as they did not fully address the impact of the Veteran's psychiatric disorder on his ability to work in an occupational environment.

What this means for you
A remand is not a loss. The Board sent the case back for more development — often a new exam or missing records — before making a final decision. Many remands later end in a grant, and the decision spells out exactly what the Board wanted to see.
