Denied
The Board denied effective dates prior to June 29, 2022 for the awards of service connection for myoclonus 1 with right upper extremity tremors, left upper extremity tremors, and left lower extremity tremors.
The deciding factor: The appropriate effective date for the award of service connection is June 29, 2022, the date of receipt of the Veteran's claim, as myoclonus was first clinically shown in January 2022.
