The Board denied the Veteran's claim for a total disability rating based on individual unemployability (TDIU) as a result of her service-connected psychiatric disorder, on an extraschedular basis, for the period prior to April 6, 2010.
The deciding factor: The totality of the available evidence did not persuasively weigh in favor of finding that the Veteran was rendered unable to obtain and follow substantially gainful employment by her service-connected disability during the relevant period.
