Dismissed
The Veteran's appeal for a total disability rating based on individual unemployability (TDIU) was dismissed due to an impermissible concurrent election under the Appeals Modernization Act.
The deciding factor: The January 20, 2025, VA Form 10182 is considered an impermissible concurrent election and therefore invalid/procedurally defective because the issue of entitlement to a TDIU was pending via the supplemental claim review lane prior to the Board appeal filing.
