Denied
The Board denied the Veteran's claims for an earlier effective date for a 100 percent rating for PTSD, special monthly compensation based on the housebound rate, and basic eligibility to Dependents' Educational Assistance.
The deciding factor: The evidence did not show that the Veteran met the criteria for total occupational and social impairment required for a 100 percent disability rating at any time during the period on appeal.
