Do I need special documents to qualify for exemption?
Each exemption clause has its own set of requirements. You may be asked to provide documents such as your birth certificate, discharge papers from the armed services, a certificate from the Commission on Blindness, a death certificate and others to establish your eligibility. The assessors will advise you at the time of application.
