Granted
The Veteran's claim for an earlier effective date of September 29, 2021, for the assignment of a 70 percent evaluation for posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) with major depressive disorder was granted.
The deciding factor: The Veteran has continuously pursued his initial claim from the September 29, 2021, intent to file, and the evidence supports a 70 percent rating due to occupational and social impairment with deficiencies in most areas.
