Denied
The Board denied an earlier effective date for the addition of the Veteran's spouse, C., as his dependent to his award of VA disability compensation.
The deciding factor: The claim was abandoned due to lack of submission of required information within one year after notification, and a complete claim was not submitted within one year of the rating decision establishing eligibility for additional compensation for dependents.
