Granted
The Board granted eligibility for attorney fees based on past-due benefits awarded in a March 2024 rating decision, which increased the rating for psychiatric conditions to 70 percent and awarded TDIU.
The deciding factor: Eligibility was granted due to a valid power of attorney and fee agreement, and the March 2024 rating decision resulted from an appeal on the issues of higher ratings and TDIU.
