Initial Medical Verification
 
(01/01/14 - 03/31/14)
At the interview, when the participant claims to have a disability and meets any of the local office medical disability determination criteria, request verification to establish the medical disability.
 
Consider the participant as having a medical disability when verification is received to establish disability.
 
Verification of medical disabilities includes, but is not limited to, the following:
 
●Award letters from SSA
 
NOTE Receipt of Social Security benefits verifies deprivation only when it is received for disability. It does not verify deprivation due to disability when received for retirement or age.

●Completed Verification of Disability (FAA‑1249A) form
●Disability Verification from VA
●Doctor's release from a hospital prohibiting a return to work for a specific period of time
●Doctor, clinic, or hospital's signed statement
