Denied
The Board denied an evaluation greater than 70 percent for the Veteran's service-connected generalized anxiety disorder and denied an earlier effective date for the increased rating of 70 percent. The claim for a compensable rating for asthma was remanded.
The deciding factor: The severity, frequency, and duration of the Veteran's symptoms did not more closely approximate total occupational and social impairment, and it is not factually ascertainable that the Veteran's allergic rhinitis increased in severity within a year of July 7, 2023.
