Partly granted
The Board granted an effective date of August 14, 2022, for service connection for sinusitis and allergic rhinitis but denied increased ratings for both conditions.
The deciding factor: The evidence supported the grant of service connection based on a presumption under the changes to 38 C.F.R. § 3.320, but there was no evidence supporting higher ratings for either condition during the appeal period.
