Partly granted
The Board denied an effective date prior to June 17, 2022, for the award of service connection for migraine headaches and an initial rating in excess of 30 percent for migraine headaches. The claim for a compensable rating for chronic sinusitis was remanded.
The deciding factor: The Veteran's claims were denied due to insufficient evidence supporting earlier effective dates or higher ratings for his conditions, as the required criteria were not met based on the evidence available.
