DeniedPACT Act
The Board denied the veteran's claims for earlier effective dates and higher ratings for chronic sinusitis, GERD, and chronic allergies.
The deciding factor: The evidence did not support an earlier effective date or a higher rating due to the lack of additional symptoms or changes in condition that would warrant a higher rating under the applicable criteria.
