Subject: [NFBMO] URGENT! Blind Pension Changes
Importance: High

The Blind Pension office has notified me today that Certified Mailings will
resume within the next 30-45 days for all Blind Pension reviews,
applications and other documents. Certified Mail was suspended by executive
order due to the public health emergency  because of Covid. With the end of
the emergency FSD has been ordered to resume the mailings by certified mail
as soon as humanly possible. 
There is a possibility, slight though it may be, that they will not have to
send Supplemental Aid to the Blind information by certified mail. Certified
mail could resume as soon as November for reviews and other notices.  I will
be sent a list of forms that are requiring to be sent certified once FSD
knows which forms that they are forced to send that way.
So keep alert once again when your review time comes up for certified mail.
Your humble BP guy,
Gene Coulter

The National Federation of the Blind 
knows that blindness is not the characteristic that defines you or your 
future. Every day we raise the expectations of blind people, because low 
expectations create obstacles between blind people and our dreams. You can 
live the life you want; blindness is not what holds you back.
