Granted
The Veteran's PTSD has been granted an increased initial rating of 70 percent from November 26, 2012, and a total disability rating based on individual unemployability (TDIU) due to service-connected PTSD was also granted from the same date.
The deciding factor: The Board resolved all reasonable doubt in favor of the Veteran's claim for an increased initial rating and TDIU, finding that his symptoms more nearly approximated occupational and social impairment with deficiencies in most areas since November 26, 2012.
