The Board denied a disability rating higher than 70 percent for the Veteran's unspecified depressive disorder with anxious distress, granted TDIU prior to January 1, 2016, and denied TDIU from January 1, 2016 to May 31, 2019.

The Board denied service connection for various conditions, including unspecified depressive disorder with anxious distress, migraine headache disorder, tinnitus, cervical strain, right hand finger disorders, left hand arthritis, and right knee strain, as the evidence did not support a finding that these conditions began during active service or were otherwise related to an in-service injury.

The Board denied an initial rating in excess of 30 percent for unspecified depressive disorder with anxious distress prior to May 23, 2023 and granted a 50 percent rating from May 23, 2023 to August 13, 2023. A rating in excess of 70 percent was also denied.

The Board granted a 100 percent disability rating for the Veteran's acquired psychiatric disorder, to include PTSD, unspecified depressive disorder with anxious distress, and insomnia disorder. The issue of an earlier effective date for service connection for PTSD was dismissed due to lack of jurisdiction.

The appeal for increased ratings for left knee conditions and initial rating for instability was dismissed, while a total disability rating based on individual unemployability due to service-connected disabilities was granted from January 4, 2016.
