Denied
The Board denied the veteran's claim for an effective date prior to September 13, 2022, for service connection of migraine headaches. The decision is final because no new and material evidence was submitted within one year of the March 2017 rating decision.
The deciding factor: The Board concluded that the criteria for an effective date prior to September 13, 2022, were not met because the relevant date of claim is September 13, 2022, and the date of entitlement is August 10, 2022.
