Processing times of disability services applications
After a person with a disability or their relative has contacted the city´s Disability Services, the city has to start investigating the need for services and support measures within seven weekdays of the contact.
Decisions on services and support measures must be made within three months of the date when the person with a disability or their representative submitted a service application. Sometimes, for a special reason, the processing of an application may take longer.
