I was denied sleep apnea and was not evaluated or even spoke to anyone regarding it. The VA stated “not service connected”. How do i file an appeal? I was approved 10% for tinnitus. Also how do i go about getting an ID card to allow for base access? (New law which starts jan 1)

Write a letter to the VA expressing you appeal and explain why in great detail. . They will send you more forms to fill out. Don't do any appeals online. Do everything hard copy and signed by you and saved at your local clerk of court. Nest step if they just grant you nothing or too little, write your state representative and attach your court copies. You not use email! What state do you live in?

to appeal a claim denial, get someone (DAV, state VA, etc) to help you. they know the ins and outs better than you will ever know.
