Denied
The Board denied the veteran's claim for an earlier effective date for TDIU benefits, stating that the criteria for entitlement to a TDIU were not met before March 4, 2020.
The deciding factor: The Veteran's last date of employment was October 31, 2018, and no formal or informal claim for a TDIU was received by VA prior to June 2, 2020.
