1Opinion of the Court

O’MALLEY, Circuit Judge.

Richard D. Bond appeals the decision of the United States Court of Appeals for Veterans Claims (“Veterans Court”), affirming the Board of Veterans’ Appeals’ (“Board”) denial of entitlement to an earlier effective date for a rating of total disability based on individual unemployability (“TDIU”). Bond v. Shinseki No. 08-0089, 2010 WL 668528, 2010 U.S.App. Vet. Claims LEXIS 247 (Ct.Vet.App. Feb. 26, 2010) (“2010 Decision”). Because the Veterans Court’s decision was based on an erroneous interpretation of 38 C.F.R. § 3.156(b), we vacate and remand.
