Granted
The Board granted a total disability rating based on individual unemployability (TDIU) for the period on appeal, as the Veteran's service-connected disabilities rendered him unable to maintain gainful employment.
The deciding factor: The evidence showed that the Veteran's combined service-connected disabilities impacted his ability to perform physical and mental tasks required by employment, leading to a finding of unemployability.
