Denied
The claim for an earlier effective date prior to March 2017 for a 100 percent evaluation of adjustment disorder with mixed anxiety and depression was denied.
The deciding factor: The earliest possible effective date is August 2021, the date of filing, but the Veteran is currently rated at 100 percent disabling effective March 2017, so the claim is denied as the claimed disability rating is already established for the period on appeal.
