Deadlines vary; a lawyer can confirm yours. An older diagnosis or a past filing window does not, by itself, establish whether you have a claim.

Where would my case be heard?
Arkansas has confirmed PFAS contamination at Little Rock Air Force Base near Jacksonville. Residents of Jacksonville and surrounding communities in Pulaski County have documented exposure to PFAS-contaminated drinking water from AFFF operations at the base.
Arkansas personal injury claims are governed by Ark. Code § 16-56-105, providing a 3-year limitations period — more favorable than many states. Federal PFAS claims proceed in MDL 2873 (D.S.C.). Little Rock AFB in Jacksonville, Arkansas is the primary military PFAS contamination site in the state. The central Arkansas corridor communities of Jacksonville and North Little Rock have documented PFAS in municipal water.
