Granted
The Veteran's service-connected disabilities rendered him unable to secure or follow a substantially gainful occupation during the appellate period, and a total disability rating based on individual unemployability due to these disabilities was granted.
The deciding factor: The Veteran's service-connected PTSD and left knee disability prevented him from continuing to work, and he had not earned an income in the previous twelve months prior to filing his TDIU application.
