About this statute
Folkpensionsanstalten ska vid behov begära yttrande från välfärdsområdet när förutsättningarna för vårdbidrag utreds. Certain close relatives or caregivers may act for a person who cannot apply for disability benefits and has no guardian; for disability allowance for under-16s, a guardian, custodian, welfare area, or foster carer may apply. The applicant must be given a written decision on benefit decisions such as granting, refusing, changing, suspending, withdrawing, or recovering the benefit. Folkpensionsanstalten may decide that a disability benefit is paid to the beneficiary’s welfare area for maintenance if paying it to the beneficiary would endanger their livelihood. Folkpensionsanstalten must hear the welfare area and the child’s guardian, and may decide to pay the disability benefit to the welfare area or another suitable person in some cases.
