The Veteran's left ankle disability was granted a rating of 20 percent, and TDIU was granted for the period from June 21, 2016 to April 17, 2019.
The deciding factor: The Veteran's left ankle disability more nearly approximated marked limitation of motion during the appeal period, which warranted a 20 percent rating. For TDIU, it was found that he was unable to secure and maintain substantially gainful employment due to his service-connected disabilities.
