Denied
The Board denied the veteran's request for an extension of total temporary rating (TTR) due to convalescence for a service-connected right shoulder disability after October 31, 2015. The decision was based on the finding that the Veteran was not in a period of convalescence beyond the initial three-month period.
The deciding factor: The Board found that the evidence persuasively weighs against a TTR extension beyond October 31, 2015, as the Veteran had returned to normal activities and completed his first phase of rehabilitation.
