Partly granted
The Veteran was granted a 70 percent rating for PTSD from April 11, 2012, to October 31, 2021, and a TDIU from the same date. DEA benefits were also granted.
The deciding factor: The Veteran's symptoms of occupational and social impairment with deficiencies in most areas closely approximated those associated with a 70 percent rating for PTSD.
