Complete claims in the Modernized Claims System (MCS) and EDCS as for any initial
claim and then transfer to the DDS.
If a disability determination is necessary for a child age 15 1/2 to age 18 under
the provisions of P.L. 97-35, the Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1981, prepare
a folder (if appropriate) for the disability material on the child and forward the
case to the DDS of the State in which the child resides, unless otherwise excluded
by procedures in this subchapter (see RS 00202.095 and RS 01310.001).
If the claim is an EDCS exclusion or limitation, create a paper Modular Disability
Folder (MDF) per DI 81010.030.
