Denied
The Board denied the veteran's claims for an earlier effective date for TDIU and DEA, stating that the evidence did not show the veteran was unable to maintain substantially gainful employment before November 22, 2021.
The deciding factor: The persuasive weight of the evidence weighs against a finding that it was factually ascertainable that the Veteran could not maintain substantially gainful employment prior to November 22, 2021.
