Thought some of you may find this communication, which I received recently from an expat, of value and it does show that some of the bureaucracy is not so leisurely,
Regarding obtaining a disabled card:
I 1st saw the social department official with the report from the Consultant and with a letter from the Doctor. He filled in the necessary forms and said that I should hear from Almeria with an appointment. He said this might be 3-4 months.
However I was given an appointment with the Social Services in Almeria within a month.
I was then assessed as to my degree of disability which entailed seeing 3 people. One who was Social Services, the 2nd a Doctor and 3rd a psychologist. They then have a meeting to discuss my disability and decide whether I am entitled to a card. They said that I would hear with in 14 - 28 days and I received it within the 14 days.
