Dismissed
The appeal for educational assistance benefits under the Post 9/11 GI Bill was dismissed due to a timely filing of the VA Form 10182.
The deciding factor: The Veteran did not file the necessary form within one year of the decision being appealed and no good cause was shown for an extension.

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A dismissal means the Board did not decide the issue on its merits — usually because it was withdrawn or had become moot.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.
