Granted
The Board granted an earlier effective date of October 13, 2022, for a combined 100 percent rating for the Veteran's service-connected conditions.
The deciding factor: An earlier effective date is warranted based on the fact that the severity level of the Veteran's PTSD was factually ascertainable on October 13, 2022, the day he filed his claim for increase.
