Partly granted
The Board granted service connection for tinnitus, effective February 10, 2025. The claim for a sinus disorder was remanded.
The deciding factor: The evidence is in approximate balance as to whether the Veteran currently has tinnitus that is the result of military service, and thus the benefit of the doubt rule applies.
