Partly granted
The Board granted a 10 percent rating for rhinitis prior to April 19, 2024, and denied a higher rating from that date.
The deciding factor: The Veteran's rhinitis was found to be greater than 50% obstructive of the nasal passages on both sides, warranting a 10 percent rating. However, there were no findings of polyps or other factors that would support a higher rating.
