The Veteran's earlier effective date for the grant of individual unemployability (TDIU) is granted to August 10, 2021.
The deciding factor: The Board finds that there is sufficient evidence pursuant to the holding in Anania to rebut the presumption of regularity regarding VA's receipt of electronic claims via direct upload. The Veteran and his representation re-submitted the application for a TDIU claim which shows that it was signed on August 10, 2021.
