Dismissed
The Veteran's substantive appeal to the February 2019 grant of service connection for PTSD with an assigned 30 percent rating was dismissed as it was untimely.
The deciding factor: The Notice of Disagreement submitted in April 2020 was not timely as it was filed more than one year after the February 2019 notice letter, and no good cause for extension or equitable tolling was established.
