GrantedPACT Act
The Veteran is granted an effective date of August 10, 2022, for the grant of service connection for sinusitis based on the PACT Act.
The deciding factor: The evidence supports a finding that the Veteran's symptoms manifested prior to August 10, 2022 and such symptomatology existed continuously since August 10, 2002 until the ITF received on May 15, 2023. Resolving reasonable doubt in favor of the Veteran, he is entitled to an effective date of August 10, 2022.
