Granted
The Board granted eligibility to attorney fees based on past-due benefits awarded in an October 2023 decision.
The deciding factor: The May 18, 2022, rating decision was the initial decision, which was continuously pursued by the February 2023 supplemental claim. Following the submission of the supplemental claim, the Veteran was provided with a VA examination resulting in an objective medical diagnosis of OSA and a positive nexus opinion.
