The Veteran's vertigo was granted a separate compensable rating of 10 percent, and earlier effective dates were granted for service connection for insomnia and migraines. The claims for an initial rating in excess of 10 percent for vertigo and TDIU were remanded.
The deciding factor: The evidence supported the Veteran's claim for a separate rating for vertigo based on occasional dizziness, and earlier effective dates were warranted due to the earliest document filed in connection with the claims. The claims for an initial rating in excess of 10 percent for vertigo and TDIU required further development.
