Granted
The Board granted an effective date of January 19, 2021, for the award of service connection for shortness of breath.
The deciding factor: An effective date of January 19, 2021, but no earlier, is warranted based on continuous pursuit of a May 2021 supplemental claim submitted after an intent to file was received on January 19, 2021.
