Denied
The Board denied an increased rating for PTSD prior to April 2, 2024, as the evidence did not show symptoms warranting a higher rating.
The deciding factor: The Veteran's symptomatology was found to produce no more than occupational and social impairment with occasional decrease in work efficiency and intermittent periods of inability to perform occupational tasks, which corresponds to the assignment of a 30 percent rating.
