Remanded (sent back)
The appeal for a total disability rating due to individual unemployability (TDIU) was remanded. The Board found that the Veteran's service-connected PTSD may have affected his ability to attend scheduled examinations, and ordered a new examination with proper notification.
The deciding factor: The Board remanded the case because the record lacked evidence that the Veteran was properly notified about his VA examination and the consequences of missing it, considering his PTSD-related memory issues.
