Granted
The Veteran is entitled to a rating of 100 percent as of September 7, 2021, for his service-connected PTSD.
The deciding factor: The Veteran's medical records show he met the criteria for a 100 percent rating one year prior to his claim, and there were no other claims continuously pursued that would allow an earlier effective date.
