Dismissed
The appeal for service connection for sleep apnea with CPAP and oxygen was dismissed due to the untimely filing of the Board Appeal request.
The deciding factor: The March 25, 2025, Board Appeal request was not timely filed because it was received more than one year after the rating decision issued on September 22, 2023, and good cause has not been shown to warrant an extension of time to file a Board Appeal request.
