Partly granted
The Veteran was granted an initial rating of 70 percent for PTSD prior to March 18, 2021, and a TDIU during the same period.
The deciding factor: The Veteran's PTSD symptomatology more nearly approximated occupational and social impairment with deficiencies in most areas, such as work, school, family relations, judgment, thinking, or mood, which warranted an initial rating of 70 percent but no higher prior to March 18, 2021.
