Granted
The Board granted an earlier effective date of February 22, 2017, for total disability rating based on individual unemployability (TDIU) due to the Veteran's service-connected disabilities.
The deciding factor: The Board found that the Veteran was unable to secure or maintain substantially gainful employment as a result of his service-connected disabilities since September 2001, and February 22, 2017, is the later date for assignment of an effective date under 38 C.F.R. § 3.400.
