Denied
The appeal for an earlier effective date for a TDIU was denied as it is not factually ascertainable that the Veteran's PTSD disability existed prior to November 29, 2016.
The deciding factor: The Board determined that there is no evidence of record that establishes an earlier effective date for the award of a TDIU based on the Veteran's service-connected PTSD.
