The Board denied an earlier effective date for the award of individual unemployability on a schedular basis prior to May 1, 2018, and remanded the issue of entitlement to individual unemployability on a schedular basis from September 2007 to August 2016 for extraschedular consideration.
The deciding factor: The Board found that there was no persuasive evidence that the Veteran's service-connected disabilities prevented her from securing and following a substantially gainful occupation during the period in question, but remanded the issue of extra-schedular TDIU due to sufficient evidence to substantiate a reasonable possibility that she is unemployable due to her service-connected disabilities.
