The Veteran's service-connected disabilities have precluded him from substantially gainful employment, and a total disability rating based on individual unemployability (TDIU) is granted.
The deciding factor: The record reflects that the Veteran's service-connected physical disabilities limit his ability to stand, walk or sit for prolonged periods of time, as well as affect his mental capability due to pain impacting his ability to concentrate, making it difficult to secure and follow a substantially gainful occupation.
