Granted
The veteran's claim for total disability rating based on individual unemployability (TDIU) and special monthly compensation (SMC) at the housebound rate has been granted.
The deciding factor: The Board found that the Veteran is unable to obtain or retain substantially gainful employment due solely to his service-connected PTSD, meeting the criteria for TDIU and SMC.
