The Board denied a TDIU prior to March 20, 2018, but remanded the issue of TDIU for the period starting March 20, 2018, and ending July 26, 2018.
The deciding factor: Insufficient evidence showed unemployability prior to March 20, 2018, while a vocational assessment indicated inability to maintain substantial gainful employment from that date onwards.

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.
