    Child's name—Print child's surname and first initial on the reverse of the folder tab, with the surname first.

B. Two or More Disabled Children—NO DIB

Where two or more disabled children are filing on the same NH's SSN and all material is being sent simultaneously to the same office (Office of Disability Operations (ODO) or Disability Determination Services (DDS), prepare one folder for each Childhood Disability Beneficiary (CDB) per GN 01050.170A in this section. Staple the back flap of one CDB folder to the front flap of the second CDB folder and so on.

C. CDB and DIB Applications Filed for Different Individuals—One SSN

In DIB cases where there is also a CDB application based on the DIB claimant's E/R, prepare separate folders. Prepare the DIB folder as in GN 01050.165 and the CDB folder as in GN 01050.170A or GN 01050.170B in this section. If both claims are sent simultaneously to the same office, staple the back flap of the DIB folder to the front flap of the CDB folder. Do not transmit the CDB claim before the DIB claim unless the NH has also filed for a Retirement Insurance Benefits (RIB). Cross-refer in remarks section of SSA-831-U5.

D. One Individual Claiming CDB and DIB—Two SSN's

When an individual files a CDB application on their parent's or grandparent's SSN and a DIB application on their own SSN, transmit the two applications simultaneously in separate folders. Prepare a DIB folder in accordance with GN 01050.165 and the CDB folder in accordance with GN 01050.170A in this section. In transmitting a combined CDB and DIB claims, staple the back flap of the DIB folder to the front flap of the CDB folder.
