“This will allow access to the rights and benefits provided by the National State in the area of health, long-distance transportation, family allowances, non-contributory pensions and tax exemptions,” said a statement from the agency.
ANDIS explained that the so-called “NO CUD” certificates were issued prior to Law No. 24,901, “not complying with international certifications, nor do they have an expiration date or certify the existence of medical treatment for rehabilitation or the state of the disabled person. ”
