Granted
The Board grants entitlement to a total disability rating based on individual unemployability (TDIU) on an extra-schedular basis for the period prior to July 30, 2012, due to service-connected PTSD.
The deciding factor: The Veteran's service-connected PTSD prevented him from securing and maintaining gainful employment during the period prior to July 30, 2012, as evidenced by his reported symptoms and SSA findings.
