If the child returns the completed and certified SSA-1372 (pages 2 and 3) to the FO,
the FO reviews the student's statement and the school's certification to determine
whether student benefits are payable. Be sure the child has answered the disability question.
If the child alleges disability, follow the instructions in RS 00203.080 – RS 00203.090 to develop a CDB claim.
For instructions about determining fugitive status, follow the instructions in GN 02613.050 (Initial Claims – Determining Fugitive Status) and “Fugitive Felon: Stop Suspension
or Denial of Individuals with Felony Warrants Affected by the Martinez Settlement”

If the child does not qualify for student benefits, process the denial (RS 00205.400F.5.).

the student the following forms:
-
