§ 26901 Disability Benefit Application Process

Key Takeaways

  • •You must fill out a special form to ask for disability money.
  • •If you can't do it yourself, your guardian can fill it out for you.
  • •The form must be the one given by the system, not any other form.

Example

If you get hurt at work and can't work anymore, you want money to help you.

You have to fill out the right form from the government to ask for that money. If you're too hurt to do it, the person who takes care of you can fill it out instead.
