Denied
The Board denied an effective date earlier than March 1, 2023, for the grant of service connection for tinnitus and also denied a motion to revise the February 2007 rating decision based on clear and unmistakable error.
The deciding factor: The evidence did not show that the correct facts were not before the RO at the time or that the RO incorrectly applied the statutory or regulatory provisions, which would have manifestly changed the outcome of the claim for service connection for tinnitus.
