Dismissed
The appeal concerning the effective date for basic eligibility to DEA was dismissed because the Notice of Disagreement did not identify a specific rating decision with which the claimant disagrees.
The deciding factor: The claimant's VA Form 10182 was not correct and does not meet the requirements for a valid notice of disagreement for this issue, as it failed to identify an existing rating decision after February 19, 2019, with which he disagrees.
