In Argentina, they have explained how to obtain the Disability Certificate (CUD). First, you must gather all the necessary documentation, including medical certificates, reports, forms, and complementary studies. Then, you need to go to the designated office to request an appointment with the Evaluation Board to analyze all the documentation. Subsequently, you must attend the interview on the date and time assigned by the Evaluation Board to learn the outcome of your application. Finally, the Disability Certificate or the denial thereof can be collected by any person over 18 years of age with the original document of the person who requested the CUD on the date specified at the office where the evaluation and management took place. What rights does the CUD provide? Health: It provides 100% coverage for rehabilitation services, medications, equipment, and treatments related to the certified disability. Transport: It enables free transfers on public land transport. Family allowances: It provides annual school assistance for a child with a disability, a family allowance for a child with a disability, and an allowance for a spouse with a disability. International Symbol of Access: It allows free parking in permitted areas, regardless of the vehicle the person is traveling in. It also offers exemptions from tolls, municipal taxes, and patents, among other benefits, for which the exemption must be requested from the enforcement authority of each regulation. In addition to the paper documentation, the CUD can also be viewed digitally in the Mi Argentina app.
