Partly granted
The appeal concerning the issue of entitlement to an effective date prior to August 10, 2022 for the grant of service connection for allergic rhinitis is dismissed. The criteria for entitlement to an effective date of May 19, 2021, for the grant of service connection for sinusitis have been met.
The deciding factor: The Board finds that the Veteran's claim for service connection for sinusitis was preserved in a May 19, 2021 intent to file a claim and that an effective date of May 19, 2021 is warranted based on the evidence of record supporting continuous symptoms since service.
