The Veteran's appeal regarding the timeliness of a June 2023 VA Form 10182 is dismissed because her Motion for Extension of Time was granted, and she submitted a timely Notice of Disagreement.
The deciding factor: The Veteran's Motion for Extension of Time was subsequently granted by the Board in June 2024, making the initial submission of the VA Form 10182 timely.

What this means for you
A dismissal means the Board did not decide the issue on its merits — usually because it was withdrawn or had become moot. It says more about procedure than about whether a claim like this can win.
