Granted
The Board granted a 70 percent rating for PTSD and entitlement to a total disability rating based on individual unemployability (TDIU) for the entire appeal period.
The deciding factor: The Veteran's symptoms, including occupational and social impairment with reduced reliability and productivity, warranted a 70 percent rating but no higher. The evidence also showed that his service-connected disabilities prevented him from obtaining and maintaining substantially gainful employment.
