Dismissed
The appeal was dismissed due to a claims processing error.
The deciding factor: The Veteran's submission of the VA Form 10182 while adjudication of the November 2021 Supplemental Claim was pending adjudication constituted an impermissible concurrent election, and the resulting appeal is dismissed as a matter of law.
