The Board denied the motion alleging clear and unmistakable error (CUE) in a January 2004 rating decision that did not address whether the Veteran was entitled to a total disability rating for compensation based on individual unemployability (TDIU) on an extraschedular basis.
The deciding factor: The evidence received within one year of the January 2004 rating decision was found to be redundant or cumulative, and did not raise a reasonable possibility of substantiating the claim for a higher rating.
