Granted
The Board granted an earlier effective date of September 28, 2020, for the award of service connection for obstructive sleep apnea.
The deciding factor: The Veteran continuously pursued his claim by timely filing various administrative review options within one year of the prior denial, which established continuous pursuit and entitlement to the earlier effective date.
