Denied
The Board denied the veteran's claims for an earlier effective date and a higher rating for PTSD, as well as special monthly compensation based on housebound status.
The deciding factor: The Board found that the evidence did not support an effective date prior to November 29, 2018, or a rating in excess of 70 percent for PTSD.
