Granted
The Board granted a later effective date of January 31, 2018, for the removal of the Veteran's child, H., from his VA disability compensation award.
The deciding factor: The Veteran timely provided the information requested regarding his child's school attendance termination, thus the original October 1, 2016 effective date was improper.
