Denied
The Board denied the Veteran's request for an earlier effective date for a total disability evaluation due to individual unemployability, finding no evidence of marginal or sheltered employment.
The deciding factor: There was no objective evidence that the Veteran's full-time employment prior to January 13, 2022, was marginal, sheltered, or protected in any way.
