Partly granted
The veteran's appeal for an earlier effective date for TDIU was dismissed, but the veteran was granted an effective date of January 9, 2014, for Dependents' Educational Assistance (DEA).
The deciding factor: The decision on DEA benefits is directly related to a finding that the Veteran had a total disability that was permanent in nature by virtue of his TDIU rating.
