Denied
The Board denied the appeal for an earlier effective date for the grant of service connection for PTSD based on clear and unmistakable error (CUE) in a March 2014 rating decision.
The deciding factor: The March 2014 rating decision was final, as no timely notice of disagreement was filed, and new evidence did not constitute material evidence to revise the effective date assigned for service connection for PTSD.
