Granted
The Board granted an earlier effective date of December 9, 2015, for a total disability rating based on individual unemployability (TDIU).
The deciding factor: Resolving doubt in favor of the Veteran, the evidence shows that his service-connected disabilities significantly impacted his ability to work and prevented him from securing or following a substantially gainful occupation.
