Denied
The Board denied an effective date earlier than March 22, 2021, for a 100 percent rating for service-connected PTSD and also denied entitlement to a TDIU prior to March 22, 2021.
The deciding factor: There is no persuasive evidence in the record to suggest it is factually ascertainable that an increase in the Veteran's PTSD occurred within one year prior to March 22, 2021, and there was neither an informal TDIU claim under Rice nor a formal claim for a TDIU pending prior to March 22, 2021.
