Denied
The Board denied the veteran's request for an effective date earlier than October 12, 2022, for service connection of PTSD. The veteran is already receiving the earliest possible effective date.
The deciding factor: The Veteran did not timely appeal the October 2015 Statement of the Case denying service connection for PTSD, and no new evidence was submitted from October 2015 to October 2022.
