What this document is
The “Solicitud de reconocimiento o de revisión del grado de discapacidad” is the Generalitat de Catalunya application to have a disability degree recognised or reviewed (procedure 8726, model IM 16763 V1-25; the Catalan version is IM 15220). After an assessment at a CAD centre, a resolution states the degree as a percentage.
With a degree of 33% or more, a person living in Catalonia can access resources and benefits for people with disabilities. The recognition is valid throughout Spain from the date of application, provided a degree of at least 33% is then recognised. The official form is an interactive Adobe form (XFA); FoxDocs reproduces its pages and writes your data into the same boxes.
Who files it and where
- people with a disability living in Catalonia — themselves or through a representative (parent, guardian, assistant, legal or voluntary representative; a residential centre with an authorisation);
- an initial assessment can be requested at any time; a review two years after the last resolution, or earlier after significant changes or an error affecting the degree;
- online at tramits.gencat.cat (digital certificate or idCAT Mòbil), in person by appointment at a citizen service office, or at any official registry;
- the procedure is free.
What the form asks
- initial assessment or review (worsening, improvement, new conditions);
- the person’s details: name, two surnames, document (DNI, NIE, foreign ID card or passport), CatSalut card CIP code, gender, date of birth, contacts, registered address with comarca;
- if someone else or an organisation files — their details, address, relationship, REPRESENTA registration;
- contact person, type of disability and diagnoses, earlier recognition in another region, referring service;
- who to call for the assessment appointment, attached documents, electronic notifications, place and date, data protection consent.
Documents usually needed
- medical and/or psychological reports from the last two years supporting the disability;
- the resolution on the degree from another autonomous community, if it was recognised there;
- for a representative not registered in REPRESENTA — proof of representation: power of attorney, court ruling, family book for parents of a minor, etc.
How to fill it in with FoxDocs
- Tell the chat, in any language, about the person, their address and diagnoses; if you file for them, about yourself.
- The assistant ticks the right boxes, translates the diagnoses into Spanish and lists the documents for you.
- Download the PDF, check it, print, sign and file it together with the medical reports.
