Partly granted
The veteran's effective date for PTSD service connection is granted as of August 13, 2019. The request for a higher rating than 70% and total disability based on individual unemployability (TDIU) was denied and remanded respectively.
The deciding factor: The Board found that the veteran continuously pursued a claim for PTSD since August 2019, warranting the effective date; however, the evidence did not support a rating higher than 70% or TDIU.
