Dismissed
The Board dismissed the veteran's appeals for service connection for chronic lung abscess and sarcoidosis due to an untimely Notice of Disagreement.
The deciding factor: The January 20, 2025 VA Form 10182 was received more than one year from the date of mailing of the October 2018 agency of original jurisdiction (AOJ) decision, which is the only AOJ decision addressing entitlement to service connection for chronic lung abscess and sarcoidosis.
