Partly granted
The veteran's claim for an earlier effective date for PTSD service connection was denied. The rating decision for the initial disability rating in excess of 30 percent for PTSD is remanded.
The deciding factor: The Veteran did not continuously pursue his claim for entitlement to service connection for PTSD, as he filed his Supplemental Claim on January 12, 2022, more than one year after the December 22, 2011, rating decision that denied the claim.
