Success Criteria:

1.3.1 Info and Relationships: Information, structure, and relationships conveyed through presentation can be programmatically determined or are available in text. (Level A)
2.4.6 Headings and Labels: Headings and labels describe topic or purpose. (Level AA)
3.3.2 Labels or Instructions: Labels or instructions are provided when content requires user input. (Level A)
4.1.2 Name, Role, Value: For all user interface components (including but not limited to: form elements, links and components generated by scripts), the name and role can be programmatically determined; states, properties, and values that can be set by the user can be programmatically set; and notification of changes to these items is available to user agents, including assistive technologies. (Level A)

It is a failure if a form element isn’t programmatically associated with all instructions. This includes legends, labels, hint text and tooltips.
A common way of achieving this is using fieldset and legend tags. Fieldset is used to group a set of elements. Legend is the first child of a fieldset tag and provides context for those fields.

I noted in the bug tracker that no ARIA labels were found.

This resource identifies all the WCAG success criteria for proper labelling of a form and providing instructions.
Similarly the heading levels on this page don't guide me through the form.
Also, the Month/day/year do not include elements referenced:

The issues I noted above were in Storybook; when I tried accessing anything through VDI it didn't work. The system must be down (VDI, not our app). Will try again next week.
