Denied
The appeal for a total disability rating based on individual unemployability (TDIU) is dismissed as moot, and the Veteran's service-connected other specified trauma and stressor-related disorder does not warrant a rating in excess of 50 percent.
The deciding factor: The Veteran's symptoms do not more closely approximate the criteria for a higher rating due to occupational and social impairment with deficiencies in most areas or total occupational and social impairment.
