To obtain the disability certificate, it is necessary to request an administrative document that legally certifies the person's degree of disability. The bodies responsible for managing these procedures are the Department of Work, Social Affairs and Families and the General Directorate of Social Protection.

However, the person interested in the application can turn to the Social Services of their municipality to be assisted and guided by a social worker, who will inform them of the steps they must follow.

The request can be made by accessing the portal Gencat.cat.

According to the Department of Work, Social Affairs and Families of the Generalitat de Catalunya, the dependency situation is the permanent state in which people find themselves who, for reasons derived from age, illness or disability, and linked to a lack of physical, mental, intellectual or sensory autonomy, they need the attention of one or more people. These people also need significant help to carry out the basic activities of daily life or, as in the case of people with an intellectual disability or mental illness, other help for their personal autonomy.

In order to obtain the recognition of the dependency situation, it is necessary to make a request to the Department of Work, Social Affairs and Families. The request can be made through the portal Gencat.cat .

According to the Law, the people who can apply for the corresponding aid are those who need help to carry out several of the basic activities of daily life, either in Grade I (or moderate dependence), Grade II (or severe dependence ) or Grade III (or high dependency).

According to the Fundació Santa Maria de Comabella, it is a judicial process that, through a sentence, recognizes that a person does not have (totally or partially) the capacity to govern himself. The sentence determines what types of support you need to be protected.

The modification of a person's capacity is considered when the lack of capacity prevents taking care of oneself and one's property.

When starting the incapacitation process, it will be assessed...

• The cause or reason for incapacitation.
• If the person needs protective measures.
• If it is urgent to take measures to avoid prejudice to the person to be protected or to their assets.

Lawyers or suitable professionals can initiate the proceedings of a judicial incapacitation process that will end with a sentence that will determine which guardianship figure is the most correct.
