Granted
The Veteran's appeal for Total Disability Individual Unemployability (TDIU) was granted because the evidence showed that his service-connected disabilities prevented him from securing or following substantially gainful employment.
The deciding factor: The Board found that the Veteran's service-connected disabilities, including bilateral hearing loss, anxiety, and tinnitus, made it impossible for him to perform the physical and mental acts required by employment.
