NSPA's statement on Sunday read that the Agency has launched the NDR earlier this month, and that submissions for disability allowance should be made through the digital portal on NSPA's website - ndr.nspa.gov.mv - starting from 16 January 2023.

NSPA said that disability allowances will be paid starting from the month a registration is made on the digital portal, and that the applicants can apply for disability allowances as per before, using the digital portal henceforth.

NSPA assured that the disability allowance will not be discontinued for any of the registered applicants, and the applicant information can be found on the NDR digital portal. NSPA urged the public to update the NDR via the digital portal.
