Denied
The Board denied the veteran's claim for individual unemployability prior to August 28, 2014, on an extraschedular basis because the service-connected disabilities did not preclude the veteran from securing and following substantially gainful employment.
The deciding factor: The evidence showed that the veteran's service-connected conditions did cause functional limitations but did not demonstrate that he was unable to obtain or maintain gainful employment due to these conditions.
