Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the matters of entitlement to an earlier effective date for the grant of a total disability rating based on individual unemployability (TDIU) and Dependents' Educational Assistance (DEA) due to a pre-decisional duty to assist error.
The deciding factor: Remand is required to provide the Veteran with notice of his right to a hearing before a decision is issued, as the initial rating decision did not include this information.
