Partly granted
The Board granted a 70 percent rating for the service-connected persistent depressive disorder effective from November 7, 2022, and denied entitlement to total disability based on individual unemployability (TDIU) due to service-connected disabilities.
The deciding factor: The Veteran's combined rating is now 100 percent from November 7, 2022, making the issue of TDIU moot as he already receives a total rating.
