Granted
The veteran's claim for a total disability rating based on individual unemployability (TDIU) due to service-connected PTSD with major depressive disorder has been granted. The decision is based on the evidence showing that the veteran is unable to obtain and maintain substantially gainful employment.
The deciding factor: The Board found that the veteran's service-connected PTSD with MDD renders him unable to secure and follow a substantially gainful occupation, meeting the criteria for TDIU.
