How to find evidence of a List A Condition?
A person may inform us that they have a List A condition, or we might identify it when reviewing their disability evidence.

If the person has a List A condition
If there’s evidence of a List A condition, the disability requirements are met.
You also need to think about the early intervention requirements. Go to article Understand early intervention requirements.
If the person doesn’t have a List A condition
If the person doesn’t have a List A condition, think about all the disability and early intervention requirements using articles:
