Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the issues of entitlement to a total disability rating based on individual employability (TDIU) and an effective date prior to March 19, 2024, for the assignment of an 80 percent disability rating for service-connected narcolepsy.
The deciding factor: The issues are inextricably intertwined with each other and require proper development by the agency of original jurisdiction.

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.
