Denied
The veteran's appeal for additional past due benefits was denied because the VA had already paid all retroactive compensation owed.
The deciding factor: The Veteran received a monthly pension greater than the potential compensation benefits at the time of the January 2023 rating decision, and has since been provided proper compensation from the effective date of the award.
