Partly granted
The Veteran's depressive disorder was granted a 70 percent disability rating from April 27, 2020 to August 15, 2022, and a TDIU was also granted.
The deciding factor: The Veteran's symptoms of occupational and social impairment with deficiencies in most areas justified the 70 percent rating, but there was no evidence of total occupational and social impairment to warrant a higher rating or TDIU for the entire appeal period.
