# PRS.DR.02: SP-System queries the DR to confirm disability status of potential beneficiaries

This use case relates to the enroll stage of the [social protection delivery chain](https://standards.spdci.org/standards/dci-standards/wip-disability-registry/disability-registry-and-sp-systems-interface/1.-crvs/1.2-process). Its purpose is for the DR to verify the disability status of a potential beneficiary before enrolment into social protection programmes. In this case, the SP system needs to query the DR to verify their current disability status.  &#x20;

The request to share the disability status will be initiated by the SP system (possibly alongside requests to other registries) to verify eligibility. This could be a request for an individual member, or a bulk request for a batch of potential beneficiaries.&#x20;

For data minimisation purposes, the use case can only request confirmation of whether or not a person is disabled. The DR will return a 'yes' or 'no' response. If the SP system needs to verify other criteria for the programme, then additional requests can be made to obtain details on the disability.&#x20;

Please refer to the sub-pages for descriptions that illustrate this generic use case using examples from common social protection schemes.&#x20;
