Partly granted
The veteran's claim for TDIU was dismissed because it had already been granted. The claim for an increased rating for PTSD was denied due to the veteran's failure to attend a required examination.
The deciding factor: The Veteran failed to report for an official examination for his claimed PTSD and did not offer good cause for failing to appear.
