Denied
The Board denied an effective date prior to June 15, 2020 for the assignment of a 50 percent rating for PTSD.
The deciding factor: It was not factually ascertainable in the year prior to June 15, 2020 that the Veteran's PTSD symptoms more closely approximated occupational and social impairment with occasional decrease in work efficiency and intermittent periods of inability to perform occupational tasks.
