Denied
The Board denied an effective date before May 11, 2022, for the award of a schedular TDIU based on the Veteran's difficulties sitting for more than a few minutes.
The deciding factor: The June 2020 VA examination report noted conflicting statements from the Veteran regarding his ability to sit, and the Board found that these statements did not support an earlier effective date for the TDIU.
