The Board remands the Veteran's claim for a total disability rating based upon individual unemployability (TDIU) on an extraschedular basis to VA's Director of Compensation Service for further consideration.
The deciding factor: The Veteran's service-connected disabilities do not meet the schedular criteria for TDIU, but the Board finds that referral for extraschedular consideration is warranted due to the impact of his seizure disability on his employability.

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.
