Granted
The Board granted an effective date of March 28, 2019, for the grant of service connection for obstructive sleep apnea.
The deciding factor: The Board found that the Veteran's incomplete application form was cured within one year by a complete claim on December 2, 2019, and thus an effective date from March 28, 2019, is warranted.
