The Board denied the Veteran's claim for a total disability rating based on individual unemployability (TDIU) as he is currently employed full-time in a substantially gainful occupation.
The deciding factor: The evidence of record establishes that the Veteran is currently employed on a full-time basis in a substantially gainful occupation, and there is no indication that his service-connected disabilities render him unable to perform the physical and mental acts required for employment.
