TDIU can be a lifeline for vets whose disabilities impact work, offering 100% compensation even if ratings are lower. Key points: you need a 60% rating for one disability or a 40% rating with a combined 70%, significantly affecting workability.
Informing your employer, providing medical evidence, and sharing personal impacts is crucial. Also, keep a detailed work history.
Seeking help from a VSO, attorney, or claims agent can make a big difference. Tailor your claim to your situation, stay organized, and keep up with your claim status. This approach can simplify the TDIU process.
