Dismissed
The appeal for service connection of bilateral hearing loss and tinnitus was dismissed due to the untimely filing of a Notice of Disagreement.
The deciding factor: The Veteran failed to file a timely Notice of Disagreement within one year from the date of the July 2022 rating decision, and no good cause for an extension was shown.
