Partly granted
The veteran's request for an earlier effective date for PTSD service connection was denied. The issues of rating and TDIU were remanded for further development.
The deciding factor: The Board found no evidence supporting an effective date earlier than September 23, 2009, and remanded other issues due to a duty-to-assist error.
