Denied

The Board denied the Veteran's claim for a total disability rating based on individual unemployability, finding that her service-connected disabilities did not prevent her from obtaining and maintaining substantially gainful employment.

The deciding factor: The Board found that there was no evidence establishing that the Veteran's service-connected disabilities would prevent her from sedentary employment, which is required to deny TDIU benefits.
