The Board has determined that the Veteran timely and adequately appealed her claims of entitlement to service connection for a hysterectomy, anemia, sinusitis, a right knee disorder, and an acquired psychiatric disorder. However, additional development is needed as these claims are currently pending.
The deciding factor: The Veteran's Substantive Appeal was signed and dated in June 2005, which the Board found to be timely based on her assertions of diligence and credibility.
