Granted
The veteran's service connection for depressive disorder and entitlement to a total disability rating based on individual unemployability (TDIU) were granted.
The deciding factor: The Board found that the Veteran's service-connected disabilities rendered him unable to obtain and/or maintain substantially gainful employment, resolving all reasonable doubt in favor of the Veteran.
