Denied
The Board denied the Veteran's claim for an earlier effective date for dependency benefits for his current spouse, J.P.Y., as no evidence of dependency was received within one year from the date of the rating decision.
The deciding factor: No basis under the law to award an effective date earlier than September 1, 2023, due to lack of timely submission of required information by the Veteran.
