Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the claims for service connection and TDIU due to a pre-decisional duty to assist error regarding SSA records.
The deciding factor: Remand is necessary because there was an indication of the existence of SSA records at the time of the July 2024 rating decision, but development to attempt to collect them was not procured.
