Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the issues of entitlement to service connection for an acquired psychiatric disorder and a total disability rating based on individual unemployability (TDIU) due to a need for additional evidence.
The deciding factor: Remand is required to obtain a medical opinion that addresses 2014 lay statements from K.G. and M.D., as well as any outstanding VA treatment records.
