Partly granted
The Board denied earlier effective dates for TDIU and DEA benefits, service connection for various conditions, and higher initial disability ratings.
The deciding factor: The evidence did not support an earlier effective date or a higher rating due to the lack of sufficient evidence showing entitlement prior to the specified dates.
