The Board denied the Veteran's claim for an effective date prior to August 30, 2023, for the award of a TDIU.
The deciding factor: There is no evidence that a claim for entitlement to a TDIU was filed prior to August 30, 2023, and the Veteran's service-connected disabilities did not meet the schedular criteria for a TDIU within one year of the date of claim.
