Denied
The Board denied an earlier effective date for the grant of service connection for nasal polyps, as there was no evidence showing the Veteran's intent to file a claim prior to February 10, 2020.
The deciding factor: The evidence did not show that the Veteran had expressed an intent to file a claim for service connection for nasal polyps at any time prior to his February 10, 2020, intent to file.
