Dismissed
The appeal of a proposed reduction from 70 percent to 50 percent for PTSD and the deferred claim for entitlement to TDIU were dismissed as they were not final decisions by the AOJ.
The deciding factor: The July 2021 rating decision was a proposed rating decision and not final, and the disagreement with such a proposal does not place the issue in appellate status.
