Granted
The Veteran's service-connected PTSD and other conditions prevent him from securing or following a substantially gainful occupation, and he is granted TDIU. He also qualifies for special monthly compensation under the provisions of 38 U.S.C. § 1114(s).
The deciding factor: The Veteran has occupational and social impairment with deficiencies in most areas due to his service-connected PTSD, which renders him unemployable.
