Granted
The Board granted the appeal, waiving its objection to the timeliness of a March 2019 VA Form 9 and finding it was timely filed.
The deciding factor: The Board found that the initial unsigned submission in March 2019 was received within the 60-day period from the issuance of the SOCs, and waived its objection to the timeliness due to a clerical error.
