Granted
The Veteran is unable to secure and maintain substantially gainful employment due to his service-connected disabilities from April 1, 2016, to September 19, 2021, and from September 20, 2021, to January 18, 2022.
The deciding factor: The Veteran's service-connected PTSD symptoms, including chronic sleep impairment, difficulty in establishing and maintaining effective work and social relationships, and suicidal ideation, render him unable to secure or follow a substantially gainful occupation during the appeal periods.
