Partly granted
The Board granted an effective date of May 2, 2023, for the award of service connection for non-allergic rhinitis but denied a rating greater than 10 percent.
The deciding factor: The evidence established that the Veteran's nasal passages are more than 50 percent but less than completely obstructed on both sides, without nasal polyps, which did not meet the criteria for a higher rating under DC 6522.
