Currently, there are two ways for a veteran to receive 100% schedular rating disability compensation from the Department of Veterans Affairs.

1) Service Connected Disability Benefits
You have a service-connected disability, or multiple disabilities, which VA identifies as 100% disabled. This way to a 100% va disability rating is difficult if you are trying to combine multiple disabilities in order to reach 100%.

2)Not Able to Work
You have a service-connected disability that keeps you from works, regardless of schedular rating. This backdoor to a 100% rating is when the service connected disabilities prevent you from getting and keeping a job. In other words, the alternative IU route can make it easier to gain the same benefits as a regular 100% rating. If your disabilities keep you from holding a job then you should be eligible for IU!
