Granted
The Veteran was granted an earlier effective date of July 11, 2017, for the award of additional dependency benefits for her spouse due to lack of proper notification.
The deciding factor: The Board found that the presumption of regularity had been rebutted and applied the law to grant the earliest possible effective date based on the Veteran's qualifying disability rating.
