Per RSMo 209.030, Blind Pension (BP) requires a participant to surrender their driver license or driver permit within 60 days of approval, as a condition of eligibility. The participant is ineligible when they obtain, maintain, or renew a valid driver license or driver permit in any state or territory while receiving BP.
Obtaining a driver license while receiving BP will result in progressively longer disqualifications.
- First offense will result in 2-year disqualification from the date the participant obtains a driver license or permit.
- Second offense will result in 4-year disqualification from the date the participant obtains a driver license or permit.
- Third offense will result in permanent disqualification from the date the participant obtains a driver license or permit.
