Granted
The Board granted an earlier effective date of January 12, 2023, for the assignment of a 50 percent rating for migraine headaches.
The deciding factor: The Veteran continuously pursued his claim and there is no evidence of any unadjudicated claim or application for an increased rating for the service-connected migraine headaches subsequent to December 2019, prior to January 12, 2023.
