Granted
The Board granted a total disability rating based on individual unemployability (TDIU) for the Veteran's service-connected PTSD with MDD, effective April 27, 2021.
The deciding factor: The evidence showed that the Veteran's service-connected mental health conditions were so severe as to preclude all forms of substantially gainful employment when considering his education and occupational history.
