The Board granted a total disability rating based on individual unemployability (TDIU) and remanded several issues for further development, while dismissing or denying service connection for various conditions.
The deciding factor: The Veteran's claims were dismissed due to procedural errors in the filing of appeals, or denied due to lack of evidence supporting a current diagnosis or link to service. TDIU was granted based on the inability to secure or follow a substantially gainful occupation due to her disabilities.
