Denied
The Board denied the veteran's claim for a total disability rating based on individual unemployability (TDIU) due to service-connected disabilities prior to December 8, 2021. The decision was based on evidence showing that the veteran's disabilities did not prevent him from securing or following a substantially gainful occupation during that period.
The deciding factor: The Board found that the veteran's psychiatric symptoms and headaches did not prevent him from working, despite his service-connected disabilities.
