Veterans who can't do a significant amount of work may be eligible for a 100% disability rating based on unemployability, even though they could not be rated 100% disabled under the Schedule for Rating Disabilities. The VA calls this Total Disability for Individual Unemployability (TDIU).
For example, a veteran with mild or passing symptoms of PTSD that are well controlled with medication might receive a 10% disability rating.
