The Board denied entitlement to a total disability rating based on individual unemployability (TDIU) from October 2, 2019, as the evidence did not support that any single service-connected disability rendered the Veteran unable to secure or follow substantially gainful employment.
The deciding factor: The evidence of record was persuasively against a finding that any one of the Veteran's service-connected disabilities, by itself, rendered him unable to secure or follow substantially gainful employment during the appeal period.
