Granted
The Board granted an effective date of June 21, 2021, for the award of service connection for hypothyroidism.
The deciding factor: The Veteran continuously pursued his claim since the special review initiated on June 21, 2021, and thus an earlier effective date is warranted based on the specific provisions allowing for such in certain circumstances.
