Dismissed
The Board denied the extension of time to file an appeal for the January 2022 rating decision denying service connection for GERD and a stomach disability, including IBS, as the NODs were not timely filed.
The deciding factor: The Veteran did not provide good cause for the untimely filing of his NODs within one year of the January 2022 rating decision.
