Dismissed
The appeal for entitlement to a total disability evaluation based on individual unemployability due to service-connected disabilities (TDIU) is dismissed because the Veteran was granted a 100 percent schedular rating and special monthly compensation at the housebound rate, which is a greater benefit than TDIU.
The deciding factor: The claim for TDIU does not present an issue that the Board can resolve as there is no benefit to an award of TDIU given the Veteran's 100 percent schedular rating and special monthly compensation at the housebound rate.
