Granted
The veteran is granted an increased rating of 70% for PTSD and a total disability rating based on individual unemployability (TDIU) due to service-connected PTSD from October 19, 2007 to August 25, 2008.
The deciding factor: The evidence showed the veteran's PTSD caused occupational and social impairment with deficiencies in most areas, warranting a 70% rating.
