Denied
The appeal was dismissed for untimely filing, and several claims for service connection were denied due to insufficient evidence linking the claimed conditions to military service or a service-connected disability.
The deciding factor: The Veteran did not file a timely Notice of Disagreement (VA Form 10182) with the June 2022 decision granting service connection for PTSD, and there was no good cause shown. The evidence also failed to establish a link between the other claimed conditions and military service or a service-connected disability.
