Partly granted
The Board granted a disability rating of 30 percent for instability of the left knee from October 1, 2020 and granted TDIU effective April 2, 2017.
The deciding factor: The Veteran's instability of the left knee was most accurately characterized as severe, warranting a 30 percent rating. The evidence also showed that the Veteran met the schedular requirements for TDIU due to his service-connected disabilities.
