The Veteran's request for an extension of time to file an appeal from the September 2019 rating decision that granted service connection for left and right lower extremity peripheral neuropathy was denied, and the attempted appeal is therefore dismissed.

The deciding factor: Good cause has not been shown as to why the required action could not have been taken during the original one-year period and could not have been taken sooner than it was.
