The Board denied entitlement to a total disability rating based on individual unemployability (TDIU) as the Veteran's service-connected disabilities did not prevent him from obtaining or maintaining substantially gainful employment.
The deciding factor: The evidence does not support that the Veteran is unable to secure or follow a substantially gainful occupation due to his service-connected disabilities, given his education and work history.
