Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the issue of entitlement to service connection for tinnitus due to an inadequate VA examination and opinion.
The deciding factor: The December 2020 VA opinion is based on inaccurate factual premises and does not adequately address the Veteran's periods of ADT or IDT after 1992.
