Dismissed
The appeal as to the issues of entitlement to an effective date prior to August 2, 2022 for the grant of a 60 percent rating for left knee degenerative joint disease with ankylosis and entitlement to an effective date prior to October 7, 2019 for the grant of a TDIU are dismissed.
The deciding factor: Procedural error was committed when the appellant's February 2025 VA Form 10182, Decision Review Request: Board Appeal (Notice of Disagreement) (NOD), was recognized and docketed under AMA Direct Review docket as to claims that were still pending in the legacy system.
