Denied
The Board denied an effective date prior to October 4, 2015 for a total disability rating based on individual unemployability due to service-connected disabilities.
The deciding factor: The Veteran did not become entitled to a TDIU during the one-year lookback period from October 4, 2014 to October 4, 2015 as he last worked full-time substantially gainful employment in July 2004.
