Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the case to have the agency of original jurisdiction adjudicate the claim for an earlier effective date for service connection for PTSD with unspecified depressive disorder.
The deciding factor: Remand is warranted due to the AOJ's failure to properly adjudicate the Veteran's challenge to the effective date of service connection for PTSD with unspecified depressive disorder.
