Granted
The Board granted an effective date of January 25, 2011, for the grant of service connection for obstructive sleep apnea with asthma.
The deciding factor: The earliest possible date for which entitlement to service connection arose was October 14, 2010, but the claim was not received until January 25, 2011. The Board found that the date of claim is the latter of the two dates, being the earliest possible effective date.
