Partly granted
The Veteran's acquired psychiatric disorder was granted a 70 percent rating from September 27, 2019 to August 23, 2021, and the appeal for a rating in excess of 100 percent since August 23, 2021, was dismissed.
The deciding factor: The Veteran's symptoms resulted in occupational and social impairment with deficiencies in most areas from September 27, 2019 to August 23, 2021, which warranted a 70 percent rating. Since August 23, 2021, the Veteran was found to be in receipt of the maximum schedular 100 percent rating.
