Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the issues of entitlement to an initial disability rating in excess of 10 percent prior to August 20, 2024, and 30 percent thereafter for left knee DJD and entitlement to a TDIU for further development.
The deciding factor: Remand is necessary due to inadequate VA examinations that failed to comply with the requirements set forth in Correia v. McDonald.
