Granted
The veteran's service-connected major depressive disorder and foot condition have been determined to prevent her from working, so she has been granted a total disability rating based on individual unemployability (TDIU).
The deciding factor: The veteran's service-connected disabilities preclude her from securing or following substantially gainful employment.
