Dismissed
The appeal for a TDIU starting from August 31, 2021, is dismissed as the Veteran has been granted a 100 percent (total) disability rating for PTSD and SMC(s) effective from that date.
The deciding factor: The issue of entitlement to TDIU based on a single disability was mooted due to the Veteran's already having a total rating for his service-connected PTSD, which precludes an additional TDIU award for this period.
